Is it legal for the principal to go through your phone and look at all the text messages and the phone book etc?

K heres how it happened:
On Monday March 31st I got my cell phone taken away because Trevor (bf) handed it to me in class and then I put it in my pocket and the teacher saw it, so she took it away then the principal called my mom tellin her that i got my cell phone taken away so i said it was Brendans (friend) and then she went and looked through the contacts and she said that it wasnt his, which is correct and he said it was his so then on Tuesday his Mom came in to get the phone (because the day before she told him that he would need a parent/guardian to come get it) and she didnt give it to his mom , and the principal told his mom she'd call us down sometime that week she never did so on friday 10 mins before the end of the day Brendan went to her office (and before we made the story that it was my SIM card it was just in his phone ) so she told him that i had to prove somehow that it was my SIM card n I went and asked her and how i was supposed to prove it was my sim card so she said to go find it in the phone (which btw there is no SIM card veiwable in the phone) so I just told her that I have no clue where the SIM card is cuz the company put it in there not me, so she said she would call both of our moms and she never did over the whole entire weekend.
Nows she has had the cell phone for a week and I was wondering if i could ever just claim it as theft or what?

You don't care, but we do, and it's also stated in the rules and regulations, proper english only or don't bother posting!

You don't seem to want to follow the rules, not at school, not here. You asked the question, we responded, that's why we are here. Now you are all pissy because you don't like the responses you got, well that's to bad. You opened this can of worms, not us, so get over it and learn to accept it.

This also is not a chat room or a text messaging communication. You want to be understood and treated like a mature person, then you type like all the rest of us type, in full sentences. There is an appropriate time for chat/text speak, but this isn't it.

Did anybody notice how she typed in complete sentences when she posted the question, but changed to "chat" after she got mad??
