Student Backpack Searches & Fourth Amendment Rights | This Week in Education Law #34

In this episode of This Week in Education Law: Educational Administrators' Guide #34, I introduce a recent case, People In re J.G. (2024), about a case when a loaded handgun was found in a student's backpack. Was this search an infringement on Fourth Amendment protections against unreasonable searches, or was it a justified action under the school's safety plan? What can educational administrators learn from this case?
