Original Note:
Requiring students in public schools to salute the US flag or to recite the Pledge of Allegiance violates their 1st Amendment right to free speech. In the 1943 case West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette, SCOTUS ruled that compelling speech was unconstitutional. https://www.britannica.com/event/West-Virginia-State-Board-of-Education-v-Barnette
