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!) Honestly, if it is not in your school policy I do not see how to bring it up to administration without having some issues. Students are just expressing themselves and if they are not causing danger or harm to others then there is not much we can do about it.
