To me, it is part of the instructor "uniform" as much as the badge is to the uniformed officer on the street and the cap that says "Coach" on the Little League team.
It also emphasizes to the students that a firearm is a deadly weapon. Far from making students complacent (as was suggested in one post) I think it makes them less complacent. A silent reminder that training and target bullets can kill just as dead by accident as self-defense hollowpoints can on purpose.
Yes, wear it proudly and prominently.
