Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District — This 1969 U.S. Supreme Court case was about the right of students to wear black arm bands to protest the Vietnam War. Justices said that school officials could only silence student expression when they can demonstrate a substantial disruption of school activities or an invasion of the rights of others.
Hazelwood School District v. Kuhlmeier — This 1988 Supreme Court decision gave public high school officials more authority to censor some school-sponsored student publications. But the ruling doesn't apply to publications that have been opened as ''public forums for student expression.'' It also requires officials to demonstrate some reasonable educational justification.
