As a teacher, I find this distracting and disturbing. I understand that students are simply trying to express themselves. However, I feel as if this is not appropriate for school purposes. What are some ways I can appropriately present this to an administrator without coming across as being close-minded? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I feel you can voice your concerns, and maybe suggest that it be added to the dress code of the school. Although I understand your concern, if this is a public school the students are most likely allowed to wear these.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) No The suggested solution is relevant to the case No The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement No The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue No The suggested solution is original No Comments: You have a right to be grossed out, but not a right to change what a student wears.
