Tinker v. Des Moines was a First Amendment case challenging the school district's right to make policies restricting students' and teachers' expression of free speech in school. The Court held the Fourteenth Amendment made the First Amendment applicable to the states, and determined students had a right to express their opinions in a non-disruptive manner. The 7-2 vote favored the Petitioner, Tinker.
Subsequent cases have granted the schools more leeway in regulating speech.
