@KatieBass18 @EducationLaw2 I agree with you. Schools have to think about other students' rights as well. It is never a clearly right or wrong answer. #EducationLaw2 @EducationLaw2

@carltondria @EducationLaw2 So, do you think that in some cases school policy and procedure "overrides" the rights of students listed in the Constitution? Interesting! #EducationLaw2 @EducationLaw2

@SydneyCarithers @molly_veazey @EducationLaw2 Yes. Students have to learn that behavior has consequences, both good and bad. Schools have a right to protect the students, even from other students and subjects, as well as keeping the civility within the school setting. #EducationLaw2 @EducationLaw2

@EducationLaw2 Yes. Students have the right within the first amendment to free speech and expression. Tinker V. DesMoines set the precedent for political expression in schools. However, not all free speech is protected. Check out Bethel School District V. Fraser #EducationLaw2 @EducationLaw2

@KatieBass18 @katelynmoore78 @EducationLaw2 Katie, you couldn't have said it any clearer! The majority of homeschooling instruction is not equal, but some parents go above and beyond to meet the needs of their children. In this case, perhaps homeschooling is equivalent, if not better. #EducationLaw2 @EducationLaw2

@DEducationlaw2 @katelynmoore78 @EducationLaw2 I agree with you. Education is much more than just instruction. Also, sitting in front of a computer screen all day to learn is not an ideal setting for growing children. #EducationLaw2 @EducationLaw2

@EducationLaw2 Some parents do hold higher degrees and are capable of teaching their children; however, they are not experts at education, as educators are. So while students still receive a good education, it is still not the same. @EducationLaw2 #EducationLaw2

@EmilyLPatrick1 @EducationLaw2 Preach! You are exactly right. I meant that the child should always be the main focus of education, but unfortunately in our world that is not always the case. @EducationLaw2 #EducationLaw2

@EmilyLPatrick1 @EducationLaw2 I agree. Every child is capable of learning, but that learning and content looks different for each child. @EducationLaw2 #EducationLaw2

@TrentMi39734430 @EducationLaw2 I agree. I do not think that a single person can honestly say whether a child is fit or unfit for an education. However, I can see the gray area in the opposing side for resources and funding for the severely disabled. But, who can make that call? @EducationLaw2 #educationlaw2
