The random search on Monday, September 24, 2007, in Untalan Middle School, was very unexpected. Mrs. Taitingfong came in our classroom with other teachers to help inspect. They told us to empty out our bags. Christian said, “I felt violated.” They had a search to see if anyone brought in items that are not supposed to be brought to school. We couldn’t bring weapons, drugs, permanent markers, white-out, electronics, etc.

         However, six students were referred. Some of them were referred because they had white-out and electronics. Some students told their friends to hold their things for them so that they wouldn’t get referred. Some students didn’t get their electronics back, while others did. After first period, there were a lot of students sitting outside the PPO office. They did the random search to teach us students not to bring items that are banned from school.
