Do we know that this was independent of parental input?
In my village, the PTA and school board work together pretty closely.

What is being overreached? Does a minor have a right to attend an evening school function after drinking? I don't believe so.
Does the minor have a right of privacy comparable to that of an adult? I don't think you would want your child to attend a school in which enforcement of drug and weapon policies were limited by the sort of restrictions you and I have when dealing with a PO.
I believe there is a universe of dangers against which protection is likely to reflect reasonable parental anxieties.
If you and I had to pass a breathalizer test before entering a city council meeting, that would be a very different circumstance, in that it would be adults and government.
