Hey everyone… I’m feeling really uneasy about what just happened at my son’s school. The assistant principal searched my son’s phone without any prior notice, and I can’t find anywhere in the school policy that gives them the right to do that. My son had recorded a fight before school but deleted it afterward. Is this something they can just do?
That sounds really concerning. Did they say why they needed to search his phone?
Yikes, that’s not cool. I thought they needed a good reason to search personal stuff like that.
Did they find anything on his phone? Sounds like a big overreach if they didn’t.
I think you should definitely file a complaint. That just isn’t right!
Have you looked at the school’s handbook? They usually outline their search policies there.
