Morse v. Frederick is the recent case before the Supreme Court where a student promoting drug use with a big sign was stopped by his school and he then sued for violation of his freedom of speech.
In Morse v. Frederick, Justice Clarence Thomas said, “If parents do not like the rules imposed by those schools, they can seek redress in school boards or legislatures; they can send their children to private schools or home school them; or they can simply move.”
This is the first time the Supreme Court specifically has recognized homeschooling as a viable educational alternative.
