Creepy Things Schools are Doing to Students.

How far are you willing to go to be safe?


Schools around the world have deployed a variety of systems to supposedly safeguard student safety and include: Microchip tracking, video surveillance, confiscation of personal property (cell phones), Strict “Hands-Off” policies, Sex “Education” as early as Kindergarten, etc..


What impact could these policies have on our children's’ futures ?


Some excerpts (italicized):

(A) school in Richmond, VA has declared a strict “hands-off” policy. This sounds like a welcome change from the negative stigma of corporal punishment surrounding Catholic schools. However, this policy has allowed one four-year-old boy to wander off on four separate occasions.

While the school claims that it is a “safe handling” issue, parents claim that it’s a “are you f#%*ing stupid” issue. Instead of physically stopping the boy, teachers followed him from a safe distance before alerting the authorities who then came to retrieve the child. Apparently this school believes that instead of endangering a teacher’s career by asking them to touch a child, it’s a much better idea to endanger it by having them follow the child, leave 27 other children alone unattended, and then call the police, wasting their time and taxpayer money.


Leave it to the wild and crazy Brits to combine Harry Potter uniforms with James Bond technology. In England, a private school in South Yorkshire is tracking their students with microchips.




The skirts are for uniformity, the socks are for circulation
There are a few reasons for making these students wear RFID chips:

1. To correctly identify them
2. To determine if they’re on school grounds
3. To determine if they’re in their proper class
4. To easily reprogram them in the event of a robot war

Although it seems to make sense as a measure to combat ditching class, it also serves as a horrible invasion of privacy. The idea of bugging children makes students look and feel like inmates, when realistically only, say, 20% of them are headed in that direction.

Benjamin Franklin once said: “They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”


In the name of safety, we are willing to create a system that is akin to a “Police State”? Are we so afraid to do the wrong thing that we prefer to do nothing (as in the case of the strict “hands off” policy)? Will a system designed to monitor (in various ways) our actions (locations, etc.) do more to harm us in the long run?


Do we have to live in a society so afraid to live?
