No, because it is not their personal property and is a violation of privacy. Students do have the right to not give up their phone to school officials

It depends on the school's policies and the circumstances surrounding the situation. Schools may have rules in place regarding the use of electronic devices during school hours, and confiscating a student's phone could be a consequence for violating those rules. However, schools typically must have a valid reason for taking away a student's phone, and they should follow proper procedures.
