Jahn, Trenton, submitted a brief on behalf of amicus curiae New Jersey School Boards Association (Ms. Jahn and Donna M. Kaye, attorneys, on the brief). Justice WALLACE, JR., delivered the opinion of the Court. We granted certification to determine whether the reasonable grounds standard adopted by our Court and the United States Supreme Court in State in the Interest of T.L. O., 94 N.J. 331, 346, 463 A.2d 934 (1983), rev'd on other grounds sub. nom. New Jersey v. T.L.O., 469 U.S. 325, 105 S.Ct. 733, 83 L.Ed.2d 720 (1985), applies to a public high school assistant principal's search of a student's car on school property. The trial court found that the reasonable grounds standard applied, and the Appellate Division affirmed. State v. Best, 403 N.J. Super. 428, 959 A.2d 243 (App.Div.2008).

Best admitted that he sold a pill to a student for five dollars, but claimed that the pill was merely a nutritional supplement. Brandt subsequently searched Best's locker, but discovered no pills. Brandt was also aware that he had previously given Best permission to drive to school to have his car serviced in the school's auto shop. Brandt asked Best where his car was parked and indicated that he was going to search Best's car. Brandt, Pugliese, and Best then proceeded to the car that was parked outside of the auto shop on school property. Before searching the car, Brandt declined Best request to call his father.
