I don't think it will be taken off. Just try it; don't let a what if senario 
stop you.
High schoolers are less mature. Besides, there may be cameras around and if 
they are taken off, cameras will see them or faculty members will see and 
report them.

I'd do that, but I tried that, in High school, and the kids took the labels 
off.
This is a community college, and we have high schoolers coming during
the day, for their colege credits, so that's one of my fears.
Blessings, Joshua
