Students going barefoot to school as a school rule would a good idea.

There are schools that have recess and lunch that involved outdoors. Even there is a cafeteria at some of these schools; some of these students must walk outside of their classroom and to the cafeteria in some of these schools. What would happen if some of these kids have to walk from their classroom to the cafeteria and back in rainy and snowy weather, outdoors? Some of these students must walk classroom to classroom between periods and must walk outdoors to do so, mostly the San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego and Phoenix area. What would happen if there were a rainy or snowy weather? When I gone to school, I have to walk outdoors when I have to transfer classroom to classroom, sometimes there is rainy weather. Many San Jose schools have their students walk outside when walking classroom to classroom. Even during the winters of the fully indoor schools that might have heaters, what would happen if the heater breaks down during very cold weather? When I meant "other than swimming and other activities", I meant the sports not including that are known that people go barefoot, like martial arts, swimming and gymnastics. But football, baseball and basketball are the common sports for PE activities and these activities involved outdoors. Baseball is required mostly outdoors. Kids would have to run on the dirt of the infield and they can cut their feet onto the dirt, there are small sharp rocks on those baseball fields. Football is also outdoors and the kids run on the grass and who knows what would lie on a grass, mostly garbage. It goes with soccer. If baseball plays in a gym, then a homerun wouldn't be a homerun because of the ceiling unless the baseball hits a window and replace a $200 glass. Street hockey is also required as an outdoor sport; you have to scrape your feet on the blacktop to make immediate stops. Plus those pucks fly more than 20 mph (sometimes 70 mph) and there are times you have to stop the puck when your goalie, those pucks hurt at the correct speed, even plastic pucks. Have you ever been hit by a golf ball? Basketball, sometimes they might play indoors but the schools that don't have a gym (sometimes elementary schools) must play basketball on the blacktop. On blacktops they have some of those sharp rocks sticking in the ground and a kid scraping their feet on the blacktop for an immediate stop would cut their feet. Sometimes the students do PE activities on the blacktop or grass after the rain stops, but the blacktop would still be wet and full of puddles. Putting your bare feet on a cold wet surface would make a person sick. When I meant when I said "not allowing having any students to have any footwear on school campus," means that students can't even bring footwear for any reason. A parent must bring their shoes after school if they can. Just like when schools said, "You can't play your MP3 player". Well, I played my MP3 player outside of campus (few feet off of campus) and I still get in trouble by the principle. So they would have to walk barefoot from school to school and back. Even they can put their shoes in their locker, then what would happen if there a natural disaster strikes? Like in the Midwest where they get tornados. What would happen if an unexpected tornado hits school and a student must get somewhere else to safety? Every second counts and if that tornado hits, then that student won't own those shoes again. Earthquake can happen unexpectedly and the shoes would be buried under all the rubble. "No gum on campus" rule is often been broken by a lot of students and I still see gum on the ground. If the student doesn't watch out, then they have someone else's saliva on their foot. When the students go to the bathroom, sometimes they miss the toilet. The students would have to put their bare feet on someone else's (beep). Reports say that going barefoot outside can get you diabetes and other issues. http://www.newsmax.com... http://www.dentalplans.com... http://mykidsfootdoc.blogspot.com... The science building has chemicals that might be hazardous to the skin, mostly the chemistry classes. No shoes mean any protection for the feet from the hazardous chemicals. Some of those chemicals can turn to acid and cause some damage to the skin if not property protected. I burned my hand on a chemical once. Some schools have wooden surfaces that the students have to walk on to get to their classroom. One word for a barefoot on a wooden surface, ‘slivers'. Most of all, why would be a good idea to have students to go barefoot to school? If an American school thought it would be a good or reasonable idea, then it would have happened already.
