3. Supreme Court Case :In recent years, the Booneyville, New Jersey, public school district has established a dress code for their students. The Booneyille School District students must wear the school uniform. The students are not permitted to wear hats, “hoodies”, or sneakers in school. In 1996, then President Clinton, in his State of the Union address, supported school uniforms in public schools.
A student decides to take Booneyville School District to court stating “the dress code violates his/her 9th
Amendment right”.
Under the 9th Amendment – you are guaranteed all
rights not directly expressed in the Constitution.
Under the 10th Amendment – states are given all
rights not directly expressed under the Constitution
This case went before the Supreme Court who do you think the Supreme Court would side with the student or the school district? Why or why not? Explain your answer in 1 well written paragraph.
I think that the supreme court chose the kids side because the government can not tell you what to wear and the other side got supported by the government. So then because of this the dress code was taken down but if this wasn’t supported the government the the dress code would be on because the state is in charge of their land.
