Asked by Mel

What type of introduction and conclusion will be effective for an essay titled "dress codes in schools".
thanks
Answered by Ms. Sue
The introduction and conclusion depends upon your intended audience and whether you're advocating a course of action. A formal petition to the school board, for example, would be different than an essay addressed to students.

Many students and their parents feel that enforcing dress codes in schools infringes upon the constitutional rights of the students.While there may be opposition from students and parents, dress codes should be enforced in schools as they encourage discipline among students.

What do you think about my intro?
Answered by Writeacher
It's OK, minimal.

You need a "hook" -- something attention-catching that makes the reader want to keep reading. That's missing from your two-sentence statement. Here are some more ideas for you:
