"now you get in the territory of _maybe_ getting to a more intimate search."
Absolutely not. At this point you have exceeded the realm of school discipline and should call the REAL authorities to handle the situation. What's next, school staff conducting criminal investigations?
I don't care who you think you are, but you're not getting into my kids underpants unless you're an officer of the law with a warrant in hand.
Many seem to take the viewpoint that if a person in on a public road, or in a public place, then they have waived their Fourth Amendment rights.
"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
This means that unless you have seen something indicating that I'm more likely than average to have committed a crime or to be in the process of committing a crime, or you have a warrant specifically naming me and what is to be searched and what is to be searched for and why (which may not be issued without someone having seen something as above), then you have no right to search me, my house, my vehicle, my computer, my backpack or briefcase, or anything else that is mine or on or about my person. There is no clause giving anyone the right to search someone for being on public grounds.
Regarding the legislation of micromanagement:
Many believe that if it's better for a person to do something, like wear a seat belt or a motorcycle helmet, then they should be required by law to do so. If this viewpoint is accepted and implemented, then as surveillance becomes omnipresent and combined with computer facial recognition and statistical analysis, it will become illegal to take any action other than that which the monitoring system has deemed optimal. There will be one legal course of action in any given situation, which has been predetermined by a committee-designed piece of software after its analysis of billions or trillions of hours of video data. Taking a different rout to work than has been determined for you would be wasteful, and is therefore illegal. Attempting to pursue a career other than the one that you have been determined best suited for would be inefficient, and is therefore illegal. Refusal to procreate with the mate that has been chosen for you, or procreation with an unsanctioned mate, would result in suboptimal offspring, and is therefore illegal. After all, why should the children suffer for your selfish emotions? If you show signs of discontentment with this lack of Independence, you will receive "counseling" to help you better conform.
