What if I am called from class by a school administrator, taken to a room to be questioned by the police, social worker, or other official, do I have to talk to them?
No. School administrators are routinely allowing students to be called from their classes to be questioned by the police, social workers and other officials. This is done without first notifying the student’s parents or obtaining prior consent. The courts have said this is legal. You have a right to demand your parent be present before any questioning takes place and/or have an attorney present before you answer any questions.
