c. Vernonia School District v. Acton

Explanation:

According to Supreme Court's decision in the famous Vernonia School District 47J v. Acton case of 1995, schools can drug test student athletes before participating in sports.

10% of all athletes were required to appear for random drug testing in Vernonia School in the light of increasing drug abuse by students. The decision upheld constitutionality of random drug testing so as to protect teenage drug abuse. It is carried under Fourth Amendment of United States Constitution.
