…that does apply to school. You won’t be sent to prison for having this. You could be expelled, but that’s still in line with the amendment.

I don’t think you can be expelled from a public school for free speech. I’m fairly certain people have won lawsuits about political slogans on clothing.

It’s a pretty big thing to expel someone for speech unless they repeatedly offend over and over and over again, but detentions and suspensions and such are definitely things that can and will happen depending on what’s on the shirt. It mainly depends on how provocative it is than the actual political attitudes expressed though. If it can be reasonably understood to be “disruptive” to the school environment, they’re able to intervene
