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.
