Ann Arbor Public Schools took to Facebook Friday to explain what happened and why administrators allowed the graduate the moment of €śfree speech€ť:
Superintendent Jeanice Swift said the student €śwho displayed a flag during the walk across the stage to receive her diploma at the Skyline Commencement Ceremony on Monday evening exercised her
free speech rights and was not interrupted, impeded, or censured in any way in carrying out her display.€ť
Swift said there were €śno repercussions€ť from the school or district after the provocative stunt.
€śWe respect free speech, and this students speech was not impeded or restrained,€ť she said in the statement.

So suddenly the lunatic democrats support the 1st Amendment?
As WhiteBluecollarRedneck wrote:
"Palestine flag at graduation. Free speech.
'American' flag at graduation. Hate speech."
Sorry, I missed the news article where a Skyline High student wanted to
display an American flag but was forbidden to do so. Do you have a
cite for that?

But what do you think would happen if a student had tried to carry a MAGA banner,
or anti-abortion banner, which is actually a fair comparison?
I agree with Cindy, that wasn't the example the OP used.
Personally I wouldn't have a problem if the school decided no
demonstrations at graduation but if they allow any, they have to allow
all. (Gay pride, MAGA buttons, BLM or confederate flags).
You can see why the school might decide "Wear your rented gown, as is,
STFU and get your diploma. You can demonstrate after the graduation"
