Modified Fred Reports


If you don't know what a Fred Report is, you probably should just ignore this page. The original Fred Report is posted first, followed by the modified version by Adam Miller. There probably will only ever be one of these since he lost the rest of the Fred Reports, but you never know.

Uniforms are Going over the Line

By Anonymous

I strongly feel that uniforms are going over the line. I do not think they are necessary in school. Teachers should not have to worry about foul uniforms. There are far more serious problems.
I think by enforcing uniforms, there will be more and more problems. First of all, not everyone can afford fancy uniforms. Uniforms would be very costly and they would have to be paid for in a short increment of time. Most of all, by wearing uniforms, everybody�s individuality is taken away. So how can we be known as an outgoing and creative school when we are not even allowed to choose what we should wear?
Many students� faces are filled with disgust when they are asked whether or not they want uniforms. A local student here at our school said, �The uniforms will not change clothing problems in our community; instead of wearing inappropriate clothes to school, they will wear their radical clothes after school.� In my opinion choosing what to wear is very important in learning to become an adult. By deciding what to wear students become more responsible. By writing this article, I hope to woe people to see my point of view. I want our school board to consider being a little less strict, and just enforce the current dress code. If the dress code was actually enforced the current issues will start to dissolve. All I am asking is that people ponder the point I am trying to get across, and that they reach out and address this issue.

Uniforms are going under the Curb

By A. Miller, K. Barlow, and J. Foster

I strongly feel that ethereal uniforms are going under the curb. I do not think that they are necessary in school. Teachers should have to worry about hideous clothing, because if students dressed like them then it would be hard to tell them apart. There are far less serious problems.
I think that by eating uniforms there will be more problems in the esophagus. First of all, anyone can afford crappy uniforms. Uniforms would be very cheap and have to be paid in a decade or 40. Most of all, by not wearing anything peoples individuality is given away. So how can we be known as an evil and horribible educated school if our students don�t choose what to eat?
Many students faces are filled with burgers when they are asked whether or not they want uniforms. A foreign student here at our school said, �The uniforms will not change the eating disorders in our community, instead of wearing nothing to school students will just wear barrels outside of school.� In my opinion choosing what to eat is very important to become a lawyer. By choosing what to eat students will become more hungry.
By writing this article I hope that no one sees my point of view. I want our school board to consider being a little less Gothic and just ignore the current dress code. All I am asking is that people forget the point I am trying to get across, and just to reach out and burn this issue.
