Search of Student Lockers, Personal Possessions and Student Person
For security reasons, surveillance cameras are located in various places at Cambridge-Isanti Schools and on many of the buses. If evidence is gained through use of a camera it will be used to determine if school policies have been broken and determine whether consequences are warranted.
Lockers and Personal Possessions Within a Locker
Pursuant to Minnesota Statute, lockers are the property of the school district. Inspection of the interior of lockers may be conducted for any reason and at any time, without notice or consent, a search warrant is not required. However, the personal possessions of students within a locker will only be searched when school officials have reasonable suspicion that the search will uncover evidence of or violation of law or school policy. Please see Policy 502.
Personal Possessions and Student’s Person
The personal possessions of students and/or a student’s person may be searched when school officials have reasonable suspicion that the search will uncover a violation of law or school rules. The search will be reasonable in its scope and intrusiveness. It shall be a violation of this policy for students to use lockers and desks for unauthorized purposes or to store contraband. It shall be a violation for students to carry contraband on their person or in their personal possessions.
