The Schoolhouse Gate
Author: Justin Driver
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0525566961
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 578
Book Description
A Washington Post Notable Book of the Year A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice An award-winning constitutional law scholar at the University of Chicago (who clerked for Judge Merrick B. Garland, Justice Stephen Breyer, and Justice Sandra Day O’Connor) gives us an engaging and alarming book that aims to vindicate the rights of public school students, which have so often been undermined by the Supreme Court in recent decades. Judicial decisions assessing the constitutional rights of students in the nation’s public schools have consistently generated bitter controversy. From racial segregation to unauthorized immigration, from antiwar protests to compulsory flag salutes, from economic inequality to teacher-led prayer—these are but a few of the cultural anxieties dividing American society that the Supreme Court has addressed in elementary and secondary schools. The Schoolhouse Gate gives a fresh, lucid, and provocative account of the historic legal battles waged over education and illuminates contemporary disputes that continue to fracture the nation. Justin Driver maintains that since the 1970s the Supreme Court has regularly abdicated its responsibility for protecting students’ constitutional rights and risked transforming public schools into Constitution-free zones. Students deriving lessons about citizenship from the Court’s decisions in recent decades would conclude that the following actions taken by educators pass constitutional muster: inflicting severe corporal punishment on students without any procedural protections, searching students and their possessions without probable cause in bids to uncover violations of school rules, random drug testing of students who are not suspected of wrongdoing, and suppressing student speech for the viewpoint it espouses. Taking their cue from such decisions, lower courts have upheld a wide array of dubious school actions, including degrading strip searches, repressive dress codes, draconian “zero tolerance” disciplinary policies, and severe restrictions on off-campus speech. Driver surveys this legal landscape with eloquence, highlights the gripping personal narratives behind landmark clashes, and warns that the repeated failure to honor students’ rights threatens our basic constitutional order. This magisterial book will make it impossible to view American schools—or America itself—in the same way again.

Law and Public Education
Author: E. Gordon Gee
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781531009861
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Although primarily a legal work, Law and Public Education incorporates historical, pedagogical, economic, and other social science literature to provide a holistic framework from which to understand the development of public education in the United States through law and policy. The textbook includes in-depth coverage of cases and other materials to provide students with the opportunity to master the complexities, ambiguities, and nuances of meaning involved in education law. This book addresses three primary themes: The decision-making process and the proper allocation of decision-making power among those who compete for it; The conflicts involved in a liberal, democratic society seeking to inculcate values in its youth and; The tensions that pervade a nation and an educational system torn between values of national unity, secularism, and universalism and the desire to both preserve pluralism and enhance sectarian and parochial subcultures. The sixth edition of Law and Public Education includes more recent cases, references to new and amended education acts, and discussions on how increased polarization across the last three presidential administrations have impacted public education. This edition poses thought-provoking questions to encourage students to analyze the role of public education, and the law and policy supporting it, as belief systems in the United States continue to evolve. This revised edition also considers the changing landscape of public education resulting from social media, COVID-19, and movements for and against the representation and participation of different groups of individuals.
