Maybe it's my school uniform raised voice talking, but I think kids should go to school looking well put together. When I was at school, we weren't allowed to have untucked shirts, "noticable" make-up (most of us didn't wear make-up, but some of the "parachute kids" from Hong Kong (high school aged students who live in a big suburban home with sibling or other relative not too much older than they) did try to cross the line) or nail polish, unnatural hair colour, etc. Faculty would ask students to tuck in their shirt if they weren't tucked, and would ask girls to wash off their make-up if it was too noticable. Most teachers had bottles of nail polish remover in their desks. I would say that we girls were pretty well put together compared to many other schools (including some schools with uniforms), even when our skirts were too short.
