School uniforms could reduce problems for kids

I am Rohan. I want to tell you about uniforms. I think that students should have uniforms. I say that because a lot of bullying is happening in school, and kids are getting afraid of school. If the bullies were wearing the same thing, they couldn't make fun of others because of their clothes. I saw a video in school that showed that schools had fewer absent kids after requiring uniforms. That means kids are not missing out on learning.

My teacher told me that kids are wearing ridiculous clothes. Then the teacher must take learning time away to deal with it. If doesn't only affect that kid, but it affects the whole class. Uniforms could also help kids make new friends before they judge others by their clothes.

Those are a few pros of uniforms in schools. (Pros means advantage, or good things, about something. Cons is the opposite of pros.)
