School Uniform Policies in Public Schools
Brunsma, David L.
Principal, v85 n3 p50-53 Jan-Feb 2006
The movement for school uniforms in public schools continues to grow despite the author's research indicating little if any impact on student behavior, achievement, and self-esteem. The author examines the distribution of uniform policies by region and demographics, the impact of these policies on perceptions of school climate and safety, and their effectiveness on a variety of educational outcomes. (Contains 3 online resources.)
