Opinion
May 8, 1995
Appeal from the Family Court, Kings County (Ambrosio, J.).
Ordered that the order of disposition is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
A quantity of a controlled substance was recovered from the appellant during an administrative search at a New York City public high school. The controlled substance was seized pursuant to a search conducted for the special needs of school security and was not recovered for criminal investigative purposes. We find that the school security officials had the requisite reasonable suspicion to search the pouch (see, Matter of Gregory M., 82 N.Y.2d 588; see also, People v Dukes, 151 Misc.2d 295). Thompson, J.P., Santucci, Joy and Friedmann, JJ., concur.
