The case you cited is not applicable to what this girl is doing. That case holds (and I'm oversimplifying here) that there is no free speech on school grounds, but as far as I know, no court has ever held that a school can regulate what children say once they are no longer at school.
The examples you provided are disturbing, but they are anecdotal. No court has upheld the actions of the school in the FB examples as far as I can tell, so I hope that we as a people are smart enough to not let those schools get away with that shit.
Free speech in America is still a very real thing, so please do not exaggerate and make it seem like we are living in a police state.
