Understanding Your Rights as a Student

Students in the United States are protected by various laws that safeguard their rights within educational institutions. It’s crucial for students and parents to be aware of these rights, especially when facing legal issues or disciplinary action. Below are some of the most important student rights:

  • Right to Fair Hearing: Under the due process clause of the U.S. Constitution, students have the right to a fair hearing before being disciplined or expelled.

  • Freedom of Speech: Public school students, as well as those at public universities, have the right to free expression under the First Amendment.

  • Non-Discrimination: Students are entitled to an education free from discrimination based on race, sex, religion, or disability.

  • Right to Privacy: Students have a right to privacy in their educational records, and schools must follow strict guidelines regarding the release of this information.
