Unfortunately, the Court will probably take the safe exit and simply uphold the school district's search rights (or maybe find for the appellee, you never know!). In any event, I tell my daughter that she should vehemently decline strip searches, even if it means going to jail.
And what warrants a "very high probable cause of suspicion" in these cases? Unfortunately, because this would involve subjective criteria, there is a lot of gray area and it could wind up causing a lot more problems if school administration/faculty is allowed to determine what those "criteria of suspicion" actually are.

The kid ended up with PTSD and had to go to a new school. Honors student. Forking insane.

That isn't how it works. They do what they are told by their owners.
