Why the devil do so many people on Answers seem to think that you have no rights because you are in school? That is ridiculous.





Anyway, you do not have to disclose the list, and they cannot take any disciplinary action if you refuse. The list is your property, the event is not sanctioned by the school, the event will not take place on school property, and the school has no legitimate interest in the list. Why aren't the PARENTS responsible for where their kids are what they are doing?





Think of it this way. If I plan a party, invite my co-workers, and make a list of those people, does my boss have a right to take the list from me? Of course not!I need legal advice as to whether my school are allowed to take my guestlist for a party to inform parents?
Yes, they can. If you were on school grounds you have no rights. They have every right and responsbility to protect the safety of the students, that would include busting an underage party. If the party is safe, there is security and your parents know about it, you shouldn't have a problem.
If you were planning it or doing anything for it on school grounds you probably forfeited any rights you might have had.





I have to strongly disagree with Beebs. I'm no lawyer but I've read about a lot of decisions that strip kids of their rights in schools. The first one that comes to mind is ';Bong Hits for Jesus'; where a kid held up a sign at a school function and was suspended. His sign was meaningless and not particularly disruptive yet the court ruled against the kid.





In the example you are giving the school is going to take the position that because you were planning the party on school grounds they have the right and the responsibility to notify the parents. That doesn't make it right, but based on modern history I just don't see the courts taking your side.
