ACLU sues CCSD over graduation regalia policy, citing First Amendment concerns
Yesterday 9:47 pm
They're going to lose. It's already been decided that schools can enact dress codes. Also, you don't have freedom of speech at specific events. Schools, businesses and other institutions can enforce codes and rules governing decorum.Vegas » Today, 11:23 am » wrote: ↑ CCSD is my school district. This is indisputable evidence that the ACLU has nothing better to do with their time and money. They are going to sue the district because CCSD wants grads to wear gowns and hats. It violates the student's 1st amendment because they can't express their cultural and religious identities. The current regalia policy isn't religious in nature. It's just a **** symbol of 'job well done.' Do these people know how **** broke our district is? And now they want to sue for something like this? If the ACLU really gave a **** about 1st Amendment rights within CCSD, then maybe they should start going after the school board for deliberately and systematically silencing teachers who simply want accountability.
