decline student internet speech case others school law blog education

two other appeals raising similar student free-speech issues are pending before the justices.
Avery Doninger, who, as a Connecticut high school junior in 2007, had criticized school officials in her Web journal.
11 more annotation(s)...
- After a dispute with officials at her high school in Burlington, Conn., over the scheduling of a band contest, Doninger referred to administrators as "douchebags" and encouraged her readers to email the superinte
- dent "to piss her off more."
- The student continued to press her claims for damages under the First Amendment's free-speech clause. She lost in 2009 in federal district court, which granted qualified immunity to the school officials who disciplined her.
- In an April decision, another 2nd Circuit court panel agreed that administrators were immune from the suit.
- In her appeal to the Supreme Court in Doninger v. Niehoff (Case No. 11-113), the student said her case raised important questions about the right of school administrators to punish students for speech published outside of school on blogs and other Internet forums.
- that "school administrators are becoming increasingly alarmed by the phenomenon" of harassment and bullying, and that "where such speech has a sufficient nexus with the school, the Constitution is not written to hinder school administrators' good faith efforts to address the problem."
- The appeal in Blue Mountain School District v. Snyder (No. 11-502) involves a 3rd Circuit decision that said students who ridiculed their principals online could not be punished by school authorities because the speech was created off campus and did not substantially disrupt schools.
- The 3rd Circuit court found that the profile did not create a substantial disruption in school, and the court rejected the school district's arguments that other facts created a nexus between the parody and the school.
- The joint appeal on behalf of the Blue Mountain and Hermitage school districts tells the justices that "these cases present important and urgent First Amendment questions regarding the scope of school officials' authority over student online speech.
- "At the moment, school officials are stuck between a rock and a hard place," the appeal says. "They are responsible for protecting students and teachers from online harassment, but in doing so, they might trigger a lawsuit from a student claiming that his or her First Amendment rights have been violated. School officials cannot afford to wait any longer for a definitive answer."
- The earliest the justices could announce whether they hear the Kowalski appeal is after their Nov. 22 private conference. A decision on whether to take the Blue Mountain/Hermitage appeal probably wouldn't come until December at the earliest.
