Which case viewed the issue of students' free speech rights in school contexts?

Korematsu v. United States

Hazelwood v Kuhlmeier

Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier is the correct answer because this case specifically dealt with students' free speech rights in school contexts.

This decision limited students' free speech rights in school-sponsored activities compared to non-school-sponsored activities.

The other options are incorrect:

A. Korematsu v. United States - This case dealt with the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II and issues of national security.

C. Plessy v. Ferguson - This case involved racial segregation and the "separate but equal" doctrine.

D. Mapp v. Ohio - This case focused on the exclusionary rule and the requirement for law enforcement to obtain a warrant when conducting searches and seizures.
