Flip Flops at School

Flip flops don't always give support to the feet of the students who wear them. Students can slip and fall because there isn't much traction on the bottom. Especially when walking down crowded hallways or in crowded classrooms, wearing flip flops can be dangerous. Also, if students are in a lab, they can spill hazardous chemicals onto their feet, because they are open-toed. Slipping and falling can lead to severe injuries. Wearing something with a back strap gives more support to the wearer.
