What is a “Search?”
The following are examples of searches:
-
Examining private items or places that are not in the open
and exposed to public view.
-
Physically examining or patting down a student’s body or
clothing, including the student’s pockets.
-
Opening and inspecting personal possessions such as
purses, backpacks, bags, books, notes, calendars, appointment books and
closed containers.
-
Handling or feeling any closed, opaque item to determine
its contents when they cannot be inferred by the item’s shape or other
publicly exposed physical properties.
-
Using extraordinary means to enlarge view or hearing into
closed or locked areas, containers or possessions (e.g., using a fiber
optic cable and viewer to peer inside a closed locker or containers).
