U.S. Supreme Court Bans Singing of Ave Maria by HS Student


'Ave Maria' Ban Lawsuit Thrown Out By Supreme Court

You can't sing religious songs. But you can probably get a full college scholarship for songs promoting violence and drug use!

The Huffington Post says "The Supreme Court on Monday refused to let a high school student sue over school officials' refusal to let her play an instrumental version of "Ave Maria" at her graduation, a decision one justice says could lead to wide-ranging censorship of student speech."

The high court on Monday refused to hear an appeal from Kathryn Nurre, a former student at Henry M. Jackson High School. Nurre, who was a senior in 2006, wanted to play "Ave Maria" - Hail Mary in Latin - with the band's wind ensemble at the graduation.
