Reports: Fifth-grader suspended over anti-Obama shirt
I'm not sure if Constitutional Rights are relevant when the elementary school has "Improper Dress" guidelines in place. Many K-8 and even K-12 schools will not allow ANY type of clothing that will disrupt the class and expose the other students to lost learning time. This goes for anything with vulgarity, profanity and revealing shorts/skirts on girls. I mean, it would be Freedom of Expression for a student to sit in class with a shirt that says "I'm with Boner!" (with an arrow pointing downstairs :rasta
... but how much ruckus do you think that would bring a classroom? Haha
But yeah... I'm pretty sure that most schools in CO do have that improper dress code. Faculty is allowed to determine if a piece of clothing will disrupt the learning environment for everyone. They didn't say he had to throw it away. Just change it, turn it inside out... or go home. He was still allowed to choose
Besides... he probably thinks he's sooo badass now for getting suspended :stoned:
