🎙️Lesson 30: School Life

The Dress Code

Students wear uniforms at many schools. Students who are dressed alike have a sense of belonging to the school. They know they are a team that works together. They are often more orderly and more serious about learning. They focus on what’s inside their minds, and not on the clothing that’s outside.

The school dress code tells what kind of clothing is acceptable and what is not. Usually a school uniform has a number of different options. For example, there may be two different colors of pants or tops that can be worn. That way, students can vary what they wear during the week without everyone looking identical
