Students' Rights Publications

Most Americans between the ages of six and 18 spend nearly half their waking hours in or around school. It is therefore essential that they learn about both their rights and responsibilities in that environment. Equally important, the adults who deal with these students should know the extent of their control over this group of young people. While it is true that students do not check their rights at the schoolhouse gate, it is also true that, because of their young age and because of the educational function of schools, the rights of students are more limited than the rights of adults in the outside world.
