Well, here's the latest...

This morning I needed the school address. Rather than look for the phone book I looked up the school website, got the address and was just ready to exit when I noticed "*NEW 8th grade websites" so I clicked on it. It took me to another page and there was only one site listed to click on...DS's! That link listed his first and last name!!!! I clicked on the link and it took me to his web page which only had first name, last initial for the title...and his school pic! I cannot believe they put his first and last name, it is totally in violation of all school policies.

We signed the permission forms at the beginning of the year with regards to the interent and picture policies. I couldn't remember what was included so I had a friend that works at another school get me a copy of the releases:

1. I give permission for my child's photo or other illustrating materials to be featured on the Internet.

2. I give permission for my child's first and last name to be used with photo or other illustrating materials only for sports or special recognitions.

I can't remember if I did grant permission on both but even if I did last name is only allowed for sports or special recognitions.

Another part of the sheet also says "Last names may be used only for recognition in sports activities or for other special honors or recognition, and only with your special permission."

His website includes a family page and he identifies each family member and even gives descriptions of his borhters! And he even says what his dad does!!!! DH has plenty of enemies because of his work!

His website hobbies pages shows video games and basketball. The home page for the school gives directions to the school. How much easier can it be for a sexual predator?? Find the school, find the basketball court, show up with a hand-held video game, makes friends.....I don't even want to go there!


Are we right to be this upset?? Please tell me if you think I'm wrong! You all know how paranoid I always am about pics being posted, but then to add a first and last name, school address, etc., to the pic is beyond my comprehension!
 
OH MY GOODNESS!!

That doesn't seem right for the school to put all of that information out there for all to see.
 
I DO NOT think you are overreacting Kathy....That was so wrong...most Counties don't even list the names/addresses of police, politicians and judges on public info sites...it is a recognized means of protecting those types of occupations....I can't believe they would give all that out! My DH wouldn't even sign the internet form for DS to go to K. His feeling was that if there is a group shot of a bunch of kids without names, fine. But don't put up our son's photo with his name on it....heck, it is a community school, like you said, how hard is it to find things out if someone wants to!
 
Wow. He tells it all doesn't he. It seems like he is the only one that did a web-site. :confused3

He did have some nice things to say about you and DH.

Cute what he said about your DD.

Funny how they list his name in one place than only last inital on the web-page itself. :confused3

I would ask them to take his page down.

He sure did. We'll be going over those safe internet use rules again this afternoon.

She really liked that part. :lmao:

Liz noticed, though, that the address line of each page shows first and last name.

I would ask them to take his page down.


::yes:: Most definitely!
