I thought so.
None of you have any clue about what your are talking about. Smoke, blowing.
The result of this? Nothing. Do you think for a minute that the police monitors will actually see anything relevant, real time? Not likely. Perhaps a few kids taking too long on their bathroom break. Kids being kids. Kids will have camera placement figured out within a week anyway, and will avoid the cameras. Or else stage shows for the cameras. Same thing, really.
And forget all the uproar over the police monitoring your precious 8th graders (more Internet posturing), as the police and the schools are two arms of the same creature.
I work in education and know that monitoring kids with cameras is the least of our worries. You should spend more time worrying about NCLB or what science curriculum is currently being taught.
