Recent studies have shown that children who wear a school uniform perform better academically.  It is recommended that children wear a school uniform from the first day of Kindergarten, and wear their uniform every day, without exception. 

Wearing a school uniform offers many benefits.  First, children develop a sense of pride when they wear a uniform to school.  This also helps establish a sense of routine and enables them to distinguish the difference between their academic life and their social life.  Often, children who are failing or falling behind in school can attribute much of their problems to socializing during school hours, or spending time with the wrong crowds.  When children begin their educational experiences with a firm foundation that there is a time for learning and a time for play, they can easily draw those lines during the crucial teen periods.  Wearing a school uniform helps reinforce those boundaries.

Today there is a heavy influence on the outer appearance, and schools are not immune to this concept.  Many children find increasing pressure to conform by wearing very expensive shoes, jeans, and more.  Not only are these clothes expensive, but they may also represent a greater problem, gangs.  Special clothing often denotes gang activity.  Wearing uniforms can help lower the chance of gang activity in schools as well as help children who can’t afford to wear high priced outfits feel a sense of accord with their fellow students.

It is important to purchase your child’s school uniform before school starts.  Many parents who wait until the last minute may find that they have waited to long and the stores are sold out.  It is a good idea to purchase your child’s uniform at least six weeks before the start of school to ensure that your child will have his or her uniform in time.
