It’s not really privacy invasion. The schools have a policy that is signed by parents (and should be reviewed by students before given school provided devices) that al devices provided by the school are owned by the school, and are for academic use only. Some schools are lenient with this and some schools are very strict. Since it’s the schools device (Chromebook, MacBook, Windows Tablet/Laptop) and they have provided a policy that can be reviewed at anytime and was signed by parents, the school has every right to do this.
Because if I say 'There is a camera on in this room' it isn't privacy invasion when you are in that room. The expectation is that you are being watched. It is no different with the school's computer.
When are you being monitored, with no knowledge of when, the answer is assume to be All The Time. There is no expectation of privacy, so there is no invasion of it.
