The ruling is out

Schools can punish kids for expressing themselves off school premises.
“Schools can punish kids for expressing themselves off school premises.”
Been doing it at proms since the dawn of prom. It was a school sanctioned event. Students have no right to pimp drug use on the school’s (taxpayer’s) dime.
Those are the arguments (which I quickly reviewed), I waiting to read the SCOTUS ruling itself.
which I am still just starting to read, states that: Frederick’s argument that this is not a school speech case is re-jected. The event in question occurred during normal school hoursand was sanctioned by Morse as an approved social event at which the district’s student-conduct rules expressly applied. Teachers and administrators were among the students and were charged with su-pervising them. Frederick stood among other students across the street from the school and directed his banner toward the school, making it plainly visible to most students. Under these circum-stances, Frederick cannot claim he was not at school.
If they are not physically on school property, I don't know how they can claim attendance, and that the en parente loco applies... still more to read.
