Jackie wore a shirt with a corporate logo in an effort to_____ our school's No Logos policy
aev [14]

Answer:

protest or defy

Explanation:

Since the school has a No logo policy, wearing a shirt that goes against the policy would be an act of protest or defiance.  Jackie knows she's wearing a shirt with a corporate logo and she knows about the school's policy.  Therefore, her intentionally going against the policy is protesting or defying the policy.

Hope this helps!  :)
