Conformity in the classroom

I believe that schools do push students to conform because of their structured plans and rules. No school will allow for students to run wild like animals with no barriers as to what is acceptable. All the rules set by schools have a purpose. Whether its to control mistreatment/misbehavior or to enhance the level of a home-like feeling of a school. For example Buckley forces its students to follow a strict dress code not only to allow for students to feel comfortable around each other but to lessen the focus on what we wear and push it towards academics and such. Conformity is practiced in schools to give structure and force students to be the best they can be.
