oomis1105, some of the “rights” you are so disdainful of are actually Torah values. An actual study of (at least the Mishnayos of) the 3 “Babas”, Makkos and Sanhedrin can be quite an eye opener.
In an insensitive school, even a kid who fully tries to follow the rules can be severely shamed if he or she gets a cold or has any other health issue.
Cell phone policies can be enforced without subjecting kids to shame on unrelated matters.
True, we try to educate kids to focus on their responsibilities as opposed to rights. But a kid will not accept the teachings of the sinfulness of shaming others from a school that shames him or her unnecessarily even once.
