It shouldn't matter if you wear it or not bc one person or two or more did that, if you know what I mean, I mean one person did that in school doesn't mean anything about others, doesn't courage them to be like a killer or something. Since you guys ban it, it might courage people to do more. Well you just making us feeling unsafe from a teachers or whatever controlling us, you guys might have the power but what if student start drop off for that reason or feeling unsafe or not feeling of having to be free of what you wear. Thanks :)

The ban on hoodies is a stereotypically judgemental. Just because we wear hoodies doesn't mean you're part of a gang. There was already a rule to not wear the hoods. Hoodies are a form of expression, not a representation of crime.

This ban is rediculous, the reason is too. You say its becuase kids could hide a weapon in the pocket. Well guess what. Jeans have pockets, sweat pants have pockets, my joggers have pockets. Are those all banned to now? Or is that where ypu finally think its rediculous.

This is ridiculous. I have one child who attends South and can't wear her hoodie and another who attends Tech and can. Don't pick and choose which schools you want to penalize. Not wearing a hood will not prevent violence.

On the first day of school, a kid was asked to take his hoodie off and most of us didn't think that the teacher was being serious. Much to my surprise, she was, and I'm thinking that even at my school the ban against hoodies isn't as strict as it is at yours, but I'd still like to help stop this silly rule from continuing on further.

Taking away comfort in the name of "safety" isn't providing an environment for children to flourish. Educate, provide counselling, encourage teachers and professional staff to open their eyes. Hoodies aren't the problem.

When I went to Doherty, walking 3/4 each way, a hoodie was essential to staying warm and just as much so in some of the classrooms and walking to and from classes and the library, especially through the corridors. I see no benefit to students who wear hoodies to keep warm not being allowed to do so and find it pathetic that any city officials would penalize students for doing so by stripping them of the right. Penalizing a student for doing nothing wrong is a horrible lesson for the Worcester Public Schools to be teaching.
