FAQ
May a school official search an individual student?
School officials may search an individual student, the student’s property, or District property under the student’s control when there is a reasonable suspicion that the search will uncover evidence that the student is violating the law, Board policy, administrative regulation, or other rules of the District or the school [MCS BP 5145.12].
Searches of individual students shall be conducted in the presence of at least two District employees. The principal or designee shall notify the parent/guardian of a student subjected to an individualized search as soon as possible after the search [MCS BP 5145.12].
