Opinion Paragraph - †


Dress codes in high school †

Assignment Name :

Notes / Instructions : Another topic for sample practice writing tests at ACT (Academic College Test) - a very famous college entrance exam for US high school students.

Sample Prompt

In some high schools, many teachers and parents have encouraged the school to adopt a dress code that sets guidelines for what students can wear in the school building. Some teachers and parents support a dress code because they think it will improve the learning environment in the school. Other teachers and parents do not support a dress code because they think it restricts the individual student's freedom of expression. In your opinion, should high schools adopt dress codes for students?

In your essay, take a position on this question. You may write about either one of the two points of view given, or you may present a different point of view on this question. Use specific reasons and examples to support your position.
