In 2021, the U.S. Supreme Court for
the first time addressed the online, off-campus First Amendment speech rights of
public school students in Mahanoy Area School District v. B.L. Known as
the “Case of the Cursing Cheerleader,” the Court in Mahanoy failed to create
bright-line rules regarding when schools may permissibly punish students in the
digital era for their texts, messages and posts on social media platforms.
Professor Calvert will address the Mahanoy decision and place it within the
larger context of the Court’s four prior rulings directly affecting the speech
rights of public high school and middle school
students.
