U.S. court ruled that the school administration approval applies to demand the student's Facebook password and poking their account
Also what is written here is protected by freedom of speech
School student must not let his Facebook password management, the court ruled in Minnesota, United States. After a 12 year-old student crew by the district school board Minooskh (Minnewaska) provide management access to her Facebook account so she can look for her inappropriate remarks.
The girl's friends informed that she wrote her Facebook wall against a teacher. Principal called the student into his office and told her statement social networking is bullying and that she apologize, be punished by confinement and get personal note in her bag. As if that was not enough, then complained to the parents of her classmates (and up) the same student she writes statuses of a sexual nature. At this time, management demanded access to her Facebook account to find problematic statements there and went further and demanded (and received) an examination of private Facebook messages sent. The student gave the password no choice, but then decided to sue the school for the grounds of violation of rights.
Court hearing on agreed constitutional right was violated freedom of expression as defined in the First Amendment. According to the decision, statements on Facebook protected by the Constitution as long as it is not threatening - something you can say about this case. The court further ruled that the school board violated the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution - which prohibits searches and exacerbations without sufficient grounds. "For more than forty years, the courts of the United States recognized that students do not have to give up the rights granted in the First Amendment when they enter the school gates." Safety "is growing on these rights," ruled Judge Michael Davis. Now it seems that the school the student will be required to make up the substantial amount.
In April this year the United States was a similar incident from the opposite side. Michigan school teacher was asked to give her Facebook password supervisor of the school after a complaint raised by an inappropriate name. She refused and was fired - which began a legal battle on the issue.
