Do you think it’s reasonable for schools to search your lockers?

I think most already know that it is legal for school officials to do locker searches. They have to have probable cause, but they can search.

But is is fair?

I have a colleague whose daughter is doing a research paper on the topic and asked if I would survey you all what you think.

QUESTION: "Do you think schools should be required to have a warrant to search your locker? Why or why not?"

« Back to The Vox Box

In 2006, then-editor Steve Smith of The Spokesman-Review had the idea of starting a publication for an often forgotten audience: teenagers. The Vox Box was a continuation of the Vox, an all-student staffed newspaper published by The Spokesman-Review. High school student journalists who staffed the Vox made all content decisions as they learn about the trade of journalism. This blog's mission was to give students an opportunity to publish their voices. The Vox Box and the Vox wrapped up in June 2009, but you can follow former staffers' new blog at http://voxxiez.blogspot.com.
