Sanchez  \nUniversity of Nevada, Reno  \nThis quantitative study used an existing dataset with responses from 1,848 public middle school students’ opinions on the benefits of wearing a school uniform. Efforts in favor of and against school uniforms are noted, and the analyses used to examine demographic variables (i.e., gender, grade-level, and race/ethnicity) reveals that students in the 7th grade and Hispanic/Latino students benefited from the uniforms as compared to their peers. These insights can help school leaders identify practices that promote positive responses to the factors measured by the Student School Uniform Survey. Positive increases in students’ perceptions of the constructs identified in the Student School Uniform Survey could support efforts toward increased learning experiences for all students. This is especially important with the understanding that, when students’ socialemotional needs are met within a school culture of learning, positive learning outcomes can transpire. A discussion of these findings is shared, along with a conclusion.  \nKeywords: quantitative, opinions, survey, middle school, school uniforms  \nEducation Leadership Review of Doctoral Research, Volume 10, Fall 2022 108  \nSchool leaders and teachers are increasingly under pressure to make schools safe from internal and external threats, close the achievement gap, and continuously improve the quality of education for all students (Fotheringham et al., 2020) . These are daunting challenges under the best of circumstances but even more so in the face of budget reductions and ongoing demands for increased accountability. Since the mid-1980s, school officials began turning to school uniforms to address the issues plaguing United States (U.S. ) public schools (Anderson, 2002; Brunsma, 2004) . Yet, our search for peer-reviewed literature using Academic Search Premier with the words “school uniform” resulted in only 119 articles, and that was with the inclusion of areas outside of the U.S. and in non-academic settings. This is still quite minimal in the context of U.S. public schools implementing school uniform policies to improve educational outcomes. For example, the U.S. Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics ([NCES] Wang et al., 2020) accounted for school uniforms as part of school crime, safety, and security measures. Wang et al. (2020) detailed that 23% of elementary schools required students to wear uniforms, with lower percentages at the middle (18%) and high school (10%) levels.  \nThe increased implementation of school uniform policies at the elementary level has been a long-standing pattern; Cherry Hill Elementary School in Baltimore, Maryland was among the first to actively publicize a uniform policy (Anderson, 2002). As an elementary school, Cherry Hill served predominantly students from African American families of low-to middle-income backgrounds and initiated a uniform policy in 1987 to reduce clothing costs and minimize social pressure on students (Brunsma, 2004) . Soon after, leaders at several other Baltimore area schools adopted a uniform policy known as The Uniform Project (Brunsma, 2004) . A year after this project, a pilot school uniform project was also proposed and then implemented in 1989 in New York. In turn, leaders in school districts across the country, including districts in Chicago, Detroit, and Los Angeles implemented uniform policies. Some were district-wide initiatives, while others were initiatives in individual schools. Yet, common factors among early uniform policies reflected schools with students from historically marginalized racial/ethnic groups and of low-income family backgrounds in urban areas (Brunsma, 2004) . Modern explorations of uniform policies link dress code or uniforms to violence, which is deemed an extension of school discipline (Baumann & Kriskova, 2016) .
