The school is well within its rights to edit her speech. That has nothing to do with 'freedom.'

If it doesn't have anything to do with freedom, what does it have to do with? What gives the school the right to stop her freedom of speech?

What gives the school the right to stop her freedom of speech?

The school administration has the right to stop a kid from exercising a right he doesn't have in the first place.

Kids don't have "freedom of speech" when they are subject to parents or school administrators.
