Are bans on political expression in schools warranted?
by
Sara Ring
Yes. Teachers should remain neutral on political matters so that they do not overly influence their students.
Maybe. Although teachers have the right to express their preferences, there should be limits on how and when they may do so at school.
No. Full political expression is a teacher's right, and it encourages students to examine their own ideas about the candidates.
