As I’ve been warning about, there is no real privacy protections anymore in our public schools. Even when they say that privacy protections are in place, don’t believe it. The federal law that is supposed to protect student privacy has exceptions which opens the door for tech vendors to amass all kinds of personal information on students.
The Manchester School District recently sent out a parent survey. As Jon DiPietro noted in an X post:
This is why it’s important to understand that your children’s personal information is not private, and you need to be extra cautious about what information you allow the school to collect.
