Understanding when it is permissible to conduct student searches, and how to perform such a search, is critical for every school administrator. In this session, participants will learn the difference between the probable cause standard employed by law enforcement and the reasonable suspicion standard for schools.

Participants will also learn how to conduct searches involving a student’s person, book bags, purses and other belongings, lockers, cars and electronic devices. Finally, participants will understand how their role shifts once they have contacted law enforcement.
