Tinker v. Des Moines School District.

Tinker protects students' right to wear symbolic political protest (like the green buttons) at school under the First Amendment, unless the speech would substantially disrupt school operations. The other cases deal with school prayer (Engel), privacy/contraception (Griswold), and police warnings (Miranda).
