In most cases, a school can't look through a students cell phone without a parents permission. If the school thinks the phone poses a risk to safety, they can look at the phone without permission.

∙ 7y agoYes. Students leave their rights at the door and the school and teachers act in the parents place, but there has to be reasonable cause for the school/ teacher to look into the phone. Let's say the teacher gets a student comes to him/her about getting bullied by another student sending them text messages and names the student doing this. This would be a reasonable cause to look into the phone. Another would be a student is threatening to harm others in the school. Most schools have rules concerning the use of cell phones on campus. If a student is asked several times to put away a phone and doesn't do it that is defiant behavior. The phone can be taken away.

Can a teacher search your and the whole classes pockets by reaching her hands in your pocket for a cellphone?
No, legally teachers cannot search through your pockets without knowing you are breaking the law/school rules. In other words, if they just have a "hunch" that your phone is turned on, or a phone is in a pocket, they cannot search through your personal body unless they have seen you playing on your phone.
Is it against the law to search kids for cell phones at school?
Its not against the law...especially if the school asks you to leave your cell phones at home or in your locker or w.e but they shouldn't be able to search you for it unless they have probable cause so a teacher just says hey ima search you for your cell phone you politely decline and say i don't have one :)
Can a teacher take a students phone a search through their personal belongings?
Yes, if there is a reason for the search. Let's say that you are suspected of stealing something, so if the teacher searches your book bag it is legal. Your locker can also be searched, but a physical search should only be done by the police/parent/school officals. Civil rights of students are limited and if there is "reasonable cause" for the search it is legal as well as taking the phone since in most schools the phones are not allowed in the classroom.

Is it legal for a teacher to look through a kids cell phone if they dont have an reason to?
That will vary. The bigger question is, why would a kid have a cell phone at school? Not being picky, but it makes a difference. If it's against the rules, then the teacher could probably at least take it. If not, then I don't think he should have.
