Search and Seizure: What Your School's Rights Are.
Stefkovich, Jacqueline A.; O'Brien, G. Michaele
School Business Affairs, v62 n11 p12-14,16-18,20-21 Nov 1996
Unlike most school-security strategies, search and seizure procedures can be largely determined by studying landmark court cases. The U.S. Supreme Court set standards for conducting school searches in "New Jersey v. T.L.O." (1985) and for drug testing student athletes in "Vernonia School District v. Acton" (1995). School officials should also be conversant with lower court decisions governing metal detectors and strip searches. (19 references) (MLH)
