are students rights limited?

Answer 1

In short students have a right to a free education to grade 12, a safe environment, qualified teachers and a comprehensive curriculum that prepares them for college and the working world. The give up these rights if they deny other students THEIR rights by being disruptive or dangerous. They do NOT have the right to do or say as they please, they do not have the right to pass without doing the work, they do have the right to deny anyone in the school their education or to inconvenience them. They do not have the right to undermind the teachers or administration. They do not have the right to do anything illegal on school grounds. Students have the responsibility to come to school and do the work they are given. They have the responsibility to obey the school rules as are stated. They are responsible for bringing any problems to the proper authority.

Answer 2

Oh yeah,

In CA, it's justified within the legal concept of "in loco parentis", that is the school, and -by fiat- the agents of the schools, the teachers, are legally liable for the care, welfare, and safety of the students while they're in school.
This, plus the fact that we're legally tasked to provide an environment which is reasonably conducive to learning, etc.

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

Of course they are. Most school systems provide publications which stipulate students' rights - and responsibilities. All members of a school system have rights and responsibilites - all members of any society do as well.

Answer 4

In general, yes. Comes from a factor of things, primarily them being in school and being underage.
