Summary
Supreme Court cases treat students as citizens who retain free speech rights, but the Justices also recognize disciplinary discretion is necessary to run elementary school and high school programs and courses. Categorical analysis is as insufficient here as it is in college campus settings for adjudicating the suppression of student voices. High school students are in the period of life, straddling childhood and adulthood, when special considerations about their blooming maturity and educational needs offer context to resolution.
