But Is It Legal?
Majestic, Ann L.; And Others
Executive Educator, v17 n6 p31-35 Jun 1995
Regarding school searches, courts have provided guidelines balancing individual students' rights against the larger school community's rights. Administrators are bound by the Fourth Amendment, which stresses reasonable grounds of suspicion and related circumstances. Strip searches, metal detectors, hidden cameras, and locker searches may meet legal specifications; automobile and "sniff" searches are risky. (MLH)
