foxnews.com:

A group of pro-life students is suing their Las Vegas high school and the surrounding school district, alleging discrimination against their campus club.

One of the plaintiffs, recent ECTA graduate Felipe Avila, who founded the Students for Life chapter at East Career and Technical Academy (ECTA) in 2019, told local news he sensed "animosity" from administrators who "did not like" his group's message. "We witnessed a lot of animosity from the administrators who I would argue did not like the pro-life message, and so they tried to suppress it as much as possible," Avila said.Avila accused the school of trying to suppress their materials and, in effect, violating their First Amendment rights.
