Rutherford County Schools (RCS), a school district in Tennessee is requiring parents to sign a consent form that says they agree not to monitor their children’s online classroom sessions, claiming concerns that “non-student observers” might hear confidential information.

Another reason to open schools.

    Sounds like they are really after watching other people's children. Not sure this is really an issue, but they don't seem to be after watching the teachers or one's own kids. Not sure what real issue they are trying to control. Seems out of character for TN.

    She like all conscious humans are seeking the truth. Charlotte has a great insight but is not perfect. She was one of the first to expose the Marxist (Soviet Socialist) influence on our public schools. Today BLM marxists are writing curriculum for public elementary schools instilling quilt on white students for both “white privilege” and “systemic racism”.

    Reminds me of Norman Dodd...again

    The only thing I disagree with her about is the movement of humanism.
    The Humanists I am associated with are metaphysical (Rand based Objective) philosophy oriented. And most have not read The Objectivist's Ethics, nor heard of it.

    I remember your post well.
    My dad would have loved the idea of parents checking in. I never heard of parental complaint against him.
    He would express: I hear and I forget, I see and I remember,I do and I understand in context of his students and their parents interactions.

    I wonder if it is not time to redefine manslaughter and murder into context of the physical and the mind ....formally. Rand proposed this. It is up to us to implement.

    Ha ha, great! Thanks, and I used that piece to prove it is compulsory govt schools and their unions that would be a principled justification for "peaceful protests," not the "systemic racism" horrors.

    "parents can watch what their children are learning as long as they’re OK with their kids being booted out of class"
    If the parents don't like what is being taught they might want the children not to attend. Booting out would be an opportunity, not a punishment.
    You couldn't pay me enough to send my children to public school - or to any university except perhaps FIT to take classes from jbrenner.
