no the right to assemble peacefully is first amendment Bill of Rights. People often mistake that for the right to protest. However, since you are a student then your school has the right to determine your dress code. You could spray your hair, but your principal can expel you. Does your school have a written dress code? Specifically stating your hair cannot be of that nature? If not then I would take it up with the school board.

School is not a forum for free speech, it is a controlled environment. If you wish, you can take your case to the school board and ask for clarification or change of the rules.

Mouthing off or acting out will not win you any points with the powers that be.
