Since school is starting, you’ll want to pay close attention here. You know that packet of lovely forms the school has you sign for your child at the beginning of each school year? Don’t sign anything until you read this. They are hoping that you are misinformed and blindly give your rights away. Just so you are aware, you can opt out your child from participating in or relating to data mining surveys, family life & human sexuality, LGBTQ, gender identity, sexual orientation, screenings, risk behavior surveillance, etc.
It was discovered that Maryland schools conduct surveys intended to politically profile and to gather the beliefs and views of students and their families (they refuse to stop). You can opt-out your child not only as a parent, but also under the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (PPRA).
