An important aspect of classroom management is keeping students safe.   Student safety concerns include the use of technology and other   classroom resources, maintaining students’ privacy, bullying,   trauma, and child abuse. Teachers need to be aware of their legal and   ethical responsibilities when it comes to protecting students in their classrooms.

• Searches of students (e.g., drugs, weapons,   cellphones)
