More specifically, since the states prohibited themselves from abridging rights that they amend the Constitution to expressly protect when they ratified the 14th Amendment (14A), 1st Amendment-protected free speech in this case, this incident is a violation of Section 1 of 14A imo.
"14th Amendment, Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
"14th Amendment, Section 5: The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article."

Since we are still stuck with a corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Congress left over from the lawless Obama Administration, we can reasonably predict the following.
Based on its inexcusable track record of silence concerning state abridgment of constitutionally enumerated protections during the Obama Administration, Congress will predictably continue to remain quiet concerning the referenced student, instead of doing its duty to exercise its 14A power to make punitive laws to discourage state actors from abridging the constitutionally enumerated rights of citizens.
In fact, it's actually up to patriots from all states to resolve this problem by finishing the job that they started when they elected Trump president.
In other words, patriots now need to be making sure that there are plenty of patriot candidates on the 2018 primary ballots, candidates who will be willing to make punitive laws to discourage state actors from violating the constitutionally enumerated rights of citizens, and pink-slip career lawmakers by sending patriot candidate lawmakers to DC on election day.
And until the states wake up and repeal the ill-conceived 17A, as evidenced by concerns about the integrity of the outcome of Alabama's and Pennsylvania's special elections, patriot candidates need to win elections by a large enough margin to compensate for possible deep state ballot box fraud and associated MSM scare tactics.
Hacking Democracy - The Hack
But, you will say, we destroy the most hallowed of relations when we replace home education by social.
And your education! Is not that also social and determined by the social conditions under which you educate, by the intervention, direct or indirect, of society, by means of schools? The Communists have not invented the intervention of society in education; they do but seek to alter the character of that intervention, and to rescue education from the influence of the ruling class.
The bourgeois clap-trap about the family and education, about the hallowed co-relation of parent and child, becomes all the more disgusting, the more, by the action of Modern Industry, all family ties among the proletarians are torn asunder, and their children transformed into simple articles of commerce and instruments of labour.
Fast forward to this article. Marx would be happy. Public school is serving a troika of societal needs such as training, day care, and indoctrination.
Within public education, the state stands in loco parentis during school hours. That means there is an implicit - if not fully-understood - sanctioning of government pouring into kids' heads whatever they wanted and in some cases strike their kids. Some parents are OK with this because, well, that worked for their parents and prior generations.
But that's a trap. The issue isn't that we have the wrong types of people teaching or the schools lack discipline or we need more money in schools.
THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM is that parents have surrendered their rights.
By extension, you have equally OK'd your child being forced to watch anti-gun films, receive Sex Ed at 6 years old, and attend environmentalist-driven field trips.
Oh sure, there is the School Board, PTA and other flaccid pseudo-levers of power handed to the parent. And maybe after months of fighting and blood, sweat and tears, Johnny doesn't have to go on the field trip.
In the end you cannot ignore the truth: you've surrendered your child to the state.
