[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That makes no sense at all. There are many things that can be weapons - are they never going to teach about them or show imagery? No wars or medical info?

Context matters 100%. Watching a procedure that includes a sharp medical tool is not searching for weapons.

Did she search for scalpels or was just watching the video.

While it is fine to not contest it, I might put a response on file.

A textbook could be a weapon if you conk someone over the head. I guess this explains why my kids didn’t do any dissections in biology. I thought it was a deficient curriculum, but I guess they were afraid of arming the kids. I wonder when they’re going to shut down chem labs. [/quote]

funny, not funny that you mention that. Some of the best tools for art, even as benign as sharpening (colored or charcoal) pencils with an exact-o knife are forbidden for example. When I was in middle school we did some leather made projects using awls. Can’t imagine more being allowed to use awls or some shop equipment these days. SMH. Things were not perfect in the 70s/80s but some things today just aren’t right anymore. [/quote]

PS I would at least get something on record for your child. Acknowledge that the use of the school computer was inappropriate but the subject (dermatology) should not be. Someone else can probably provide better language for you.[/quote]
