Schools don’t want to foster that behavior and so they can make and enforce policies to create the learning environment that they want. Also your argument works for bringing guns into schools too. The second amendment is above those school policies too.

Minors have limited rights anyway, but mostly in the voting side of things. An adult is defined as someone who has reached the “age of majority”. After that, they are free to make adult decisions and be fully accountable for their actions.
Schools are basically forced to accept responsibility for kids for a number of hours per day. As such, schools.mist create a safe environment for all students and maintain some kind of order and ensure the rights of other kids aren’t infringed.
Me exercising my rights can never infringe on the rights of others. Many people don’t understand that.
