Lexington School District 1 has responded to River Bluff High School student Marissa Barnwell's lawsuit about saying the Pledge of Allegiance at school, citing surveillance video.
Marissa Barnwell, a River Bluff High School student, her parents and their lawyer, Tyler Bailey, hold a news conference in Columbia, S.C., on Thursday, March 9, 2023, regarding a lawsuit filed against Lexington School District.
"There would be no prohibition on the school requiring students to stop doing whatever they are doing, including walking down the hall, and to remain silent during the moment of silence," school district attorney David Lyon wrote. The teen’s family is suing the teacher, the principal, the school district and state education officials, alleging they infringed upon her civil rights to both free speech or not to speak at all.
