The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that schools can limit student speech and conduct. There will be no successful litigation against this school or any others who enforce such rules. The threat of litigation is used as an excuse by cowardly administrators who fear for their jobs.

True that. But can they force conduct? Can a school force a student to go to class when the bell rings? Any judge would say yes.
But can a school force a student to make a political statement, like standing for the pledge? Back in 1945, any judge would say yes. Today I’m not so sure.
