[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We received this email today from our school:

We will be recording lessons in order to support families and students, create flexibility in accessing learning experiences when attending live instruction is a barrier, and enhance the opportunity to review lesson content and resources.

When students first log in, their video and audio is off by default. If students should not be recorded, they should leave these off.

Recordings are protected, available only to students through a protected myMCPS site, unavailable for download, and will delete after 72 hours.

We recognize that even with these protections there may be students or families who do not want their children’s images or voices to be captured.  If you would like to have your student opt out of being in the recording, they should keep their video off in each class from the start of the school year.  Parents/guardians are asked to indicate an opt out in the Parent Vue portal by September 11, 2020.

This is the link to the Parent Vue Slide Deck providing families with information about activating the Parent Vue Account[/quote]

But they just gave EVERY parent their student’s log-in information, right?  And I already asked and each class won’t be coded for only certain kids. So basically anyone with or knows a MCPS log-in will have access for 72 hours. And of course it can be recorded by ANY outside device and MCPS will have no way of knowing what outside source recorded it. If they know if anyone recorded it at all.  The stories of kids rocking back and forth in nightgowns on their bed during Zooms and where they ended on the Internet is disgusting. This will be a massive shit show. [/quote]
