I'm with a couple of the above responses. I don't think that would be legal without the parents/guardians present, at least not as young as I get the feeling the Emperor is. Maybe an older teenager in the cases of possible violence, but that's even pushing it. And informing the parents AFTER the search? Oooh, they're just ASKING for trouble, no matter their warning you it MIGHT happen if the situation arises.
Make some noise. Inform the paper, hell, the ACLU would probably love getting in on something like this, or some group along those lines.
I can understand feeling something like that might be necessary, but wow is that school board over-stepping their bounds, whether or not the Police are doing it.
There could be a time when it is urgent to find out what a student may be hiding on their person, for their safety and the safety of others - how do we decide what matters most - calling their parent/guardian or the safety of the student and others?
This sentence alone would have me raging. The decision should be about where to hold the child until their parents/guardians are present before they decide to do anything, let alone strip search a child.
no subject
