Political Messages Via Clothing at DMS
Sign Now
To Whom It May Concern,
In recent events, a few students at the Danville Middle School located in Danville, Pennsylvania have made their own t-shirt sporting political messages. Thinking that this would be allowed, they proceeded to wear the shirts during school. Unfortunately, the principal called the students to the office to order them to take the shirts off because apparently they were 'offending'. When one student asked the principal whether this was violating the 1st Amendment, the principal told them that it was violating school dress codes.
We believe that the 1st Amendment should overrule the school dress code. According to the case of Tinker v. Des Moines, this has already been an issue in other areas. So shouldn't the Danville Middle School allow these t-shirts?
If you believe that the Danville Middle School should allow these t-shirts, please sign to show your support!

All through our history class in school, it's pounded it our heads why our country is great. Our freedoms are guarenteed to us by the Constitution, right? That's one of the main reasons our country is the best! To start

The 1st Ammendment should be for all to have, and should not be only for outside of schools, but in every school. For shame to ignore the Amendments that make this country great, let them wear what they want!!!!
