Student Rights and the Special Characteristics of the School Environment in American Jurisprudence
Blokhuis, J. C.
Journal of Philosophy of Education, v49 n1 p65-85 Feb 2015

This includes public schools, in part because of the legal status of minors and in part because the "special characteristics of the school environment" are predicated on a "custodial and tutelary" relationship between teachers and pupils.
