This might be an unpopular opinion, but when I see a student has their hood up I don't see it as disrespectful. I see it as an attention signal. My response is to check on them, make sure everything is okay, reaffirm/ reinforce their value, and make a connection.

Public Schools lay the ground work for dreams to be made and bright futures to be ignited everyday for every student. I couldn’t be more proud of the work we do everyday or more thankful to get to work with our incredible students each day! #ilovepublicschools @GIPublicSchools

Time to refocus on tier 1! Build on what went well, and adjust tier 1 practices based on data to set students and staff up for success. Tell, show, practice those rules, routines, and procedures! 2021!
