Refer possible search & seizure situations to _____________ for follow-up.

• A. School's administrator
• B. Principal
• C. Counselor
• D. Police

Answer: (A)

Refer possible search and seizure situations to the school’s administrator for follow-up. The administrator is the one who coordinates policy-based actions, ensures due process, protects student rights, and decides next steps—such as notifying families or involving outside authorities if appropriate. The substitute’s job is to report the situation and support the process, not to conduct investigations or determine disciplinary outcomes. While a counselor can assist with student welfare, they don’t lead administrative follow-up on search and seizure matters. Involving police is for criminal matters and should be handled through the administrator to keep procedures correct and documented.
