About the program

Review the rights of students

What you will learn:

  • What speech is protected?
  • Obligations and limits of staff
  • What students can wear
  • Technology to watch

Who should attend?

  • Any attorney who has a general interest in the topic
  • Any attorney who is a parent of public school children
  • Any attorney potentially representing a school constituency, from administrations to individual students
  • Any attorney potentially defending a student’s civil rights

Drug searches. Gang signs. Protests. It’s probably not the school environment you grew up in anymore. Review the fundamental constitutional rights of students and discuss them in the context of the current public school environment at this webcast. 

You will learn how the civil rights of students have evolved in the forty years since the United States Supreme Court stated unequivocally in Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District that public school students “do not shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate.” 

Hear how to deal with the dramatic changes concerning speech, expression, and other areas that are increasingly challenging for school administrators and their legal counsel.

Featured Speaker

Atty. Michael J. Julka is a partner in the law firm of Lathrop & Clark LLP, working in the areas of school law and public sector labor/employment law.
