Inside this paper, there were two articles . The topics included were divorce and teenage pregnancy;which gave rise to controversy among school authorities especially the school principal. He considered these articles as inappropriate. Consequently, he decided that these pages were eliminated.

As a response to this act the students took the dispute to court insisting that  the First Amendment had not been respected.This guarantees the right freedom of speech.

Justice Byron White claimed that school authorities were not infringing the First Amendment by controlling what students post on the school paper as this was a pedagogical activity that was originated inside the institution. Therefore, the school principal had the right to ban what he considered inappropriate.
