Kneeling During National Anthem at Homecoming Game

 Suppose at a particular high school in North Dakota a group of conservative Christian football players and cheerleaders announce that they will take a knee at Homecoming Game during the pre-game National Anthem to protest the pro-abortion policies of the current presidential administration. 

They are warned by school officials not to do so, and when they ignore the warnings and take a knee at the Homecoming Game they are suspended for 3 days and expelled from the football team and the cheer squad.

Apply the first amendment as developed in Tinker, Fraser, Hazlewood, and Morse.

Would it matter that the school has permitted players and cheerleaders to take a knee at games in support of Black Lives Matter?
