Dolce v. Connetquot Cent. Sch. Dist.

Summary

The court affirmed dismissal of teachers' claims arising from a school district's order that they remove pride flags and stickers from their classroom walls and doors. It held that the displays were speech made pursuant to the teachers' official duties, that the complaint did not plausibly allege impermissible motivation for selective enforcement, and that the teachers suffered no adverse employment action under Title VII. The court also upheld the decisions declining supplemental jurisdiction and denying leave to amend.
