Students' Rights to Privacy
(Separate Website)
Getting an education isn't just about books and grades ? we're also learning how to participate fully in the life of this nation. (Because the future's up to us!) But in order to really participate, we need to know our rights ? otherwise we may lose them. The highest law in our land is the U.S. Constitution, which has some amendments, known as the Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights guarantees that the government can never deprive people in the U.S. of certain fundamental rights including the right to freedom of religion and to free speech and the due process of law. Many federal and state laws give us additional rights, too. The Bill of Rights applies to young people as well as adults. And what I'm going to do right here is tell you about THE RIGHT TO PRIVACY.
