Freedom of speech protects you from Congress enacting laws that would get you arrested or penalized for expressing your opinion, as long as what you say doesn't violate other laws like libel, slander, copyright and others.
Freedom of speech is not a license to say anything anywhere. An institution that you participate in can have rules on what is acceptable to say, for example a company usually has a code of conduct and breaking it can lead in getting fired or disciplinary actions. Schools have rules, and a teacher can set classroom rules and use several disciplinary actions if they are not followed.
