GANG DRESS/BEHAVIOR
Concordia reserves the right to restrict any dress or behavior which may be gang-related or related to any other group associated with illegal activities. This includes but is not limited to the wearing of gang colors, gang graffiti on clothing or books, gang-related tattoos, gang hand signals, the carrying of a paging device, and any behavior which through its association with gangs is intimidating or threatening to others. The parents of any student acting or dressing in such a manner will be contacted and appropriate changes will be expected. Since gang activity is most often illegal and dangerous to the safety and well-being of all, any student who becomes a member of a gang and is so identified will be immediately dismissed from Concordia for the safety and well-being of the Concordia family.
