Keep in mind that this is one of Hammond's four PUBLIC high schools. The other schools do not have this ban.
What do you think?

I think that is outrageous. I know they have banned certain things in my previous high school because they can be gang signs (bandanas, hats, etc.), but never a whole color. And the hoodie thing is completely ridiculous. I would be in there fighting that, I would wear a hoodie everyday and take that to the school board and court if necessary. They have gone too far.
