I think it makes for a better learning environment when kids can dress how they feel comfortable and learn to deal with the fact that not everybody dresses the same way they do. They'll have to learn this eventually when they go out into the "real world" unless they're incredibly sheltered their entire lives. I also don't think it's the school's job to promote school spirit. Some kids will have it and some won't, and there's nothing wrong with that.
