Teenagers, Clothes, and Gang Violence.
Burke, Jim
Educational Leadership, v49 n1 p11-13 Sep 1991
A California English teacher explores the school safety issue for both innercity and suburban high schools students. Wearing certain sports team jackets can place kids in danger; girls degrade themselves by keeping gang members' drugs and guns in their lockers. Schools can help reclaim the "Great Disconnected" by developing community-based curricula and positive rites of passage. (MLH)
