Fraser (1986) 478 U.S. 675, 684–685 [106 S.Ct. 3159, 3164–3165, 92 L.Ed.2d 549] . 2147 Morse v. Frederick (2007) 551 U.S. 393 [127 S.Ct. 2618, 2621, 168 L.Ed.2d 290]. 2148 Hazelwood School Dist. v.

Poway Unified School Dist. (9th Cir. 1996) 90 F.3d 367, 373. 2151 Dariano v. Morgan Hill Unified School Dist. (9th Cir. 2014) 767 F.3d 764, 773–774. 2152 Ed. Code, § 48950 also references Ed. Code, § 48907, which provides, in part, that the free speech rights of public students may be limited when the expression is “obscene, libelous, or slanderous” or “create[s] a clear and present danger of the commission of unlawful acts on school premises or the violation of lawful school regulations, or the substantial disruption of the orderly operation of the school.” As this limitation is placed upon the free speech rights of public school students and, in general, fewer protections apply to the free speech rights of private students, one reasonable conclusion is that this limitation may also apply to the free speech rights of private high school students. However, this is an untested area and, as yet, has not been analyzed by the courts. 2153 Student Reports of Bullying: Results from the 2015 School Crime Supplement to National Crime Victimization Survey, Web Tables, U.S. Department of Education NCES 2017-015 (December 2016) < https://nces.ed.gov/pubs2017/2017015.pdf 2154 Layshock ex rel.
