Public school officials have a responsibility to ensure a safe learning environment for their students. But school officials also must recognize that public school students do not lose their constitutional rights "at the schoolhouse gate," as the U.S. Supreme Court wrote. The Rights of Students, Second Edition examines students' rights through the prism of the Fourth Amendment and school searches, the First Amendment and student dress, and the right to due process and zero tolerance. This revised edition presents all of the legal opinions, statutes, and studies readers need to form their own cohesive arguments.
