BOE member Jeanette Dixon asks: MD is a two-party consent state (for recording). What happens if someone doesn't consent? 
MCPS: At start of classes, it will be announced that it is being recorded. If families fill out form & opt out, kids can have cameras/mics off.

I don't think this is legal. That's not providing kids an appropriate education. [/quote]

I am opting out but I work from home. If my kid turns on their video screen by accident, will the teacher remember to tell them to turn it off.  It definitely is an issue.  [b]There should be NOTHING recorded with children involved.  Nothing.  [/b][/quote]

Then there must be nothing involving children on line, because that's the only way to do it.[/quote]

This makes no sense, but okay then. They didn't record any ES zoom classes in the Spring. It worked.

Go ahead and have them videotape your kids 4 hours a day every day and have anyone with or knows an MCPS log-in to access it.  I don't want that option.  That is my choice.  Some families like to plaster heir kids all over social media.  I don't do that either.  There are going to be liabilities that MCPS will not address.  The teachers don't want it.  Most parents don't want it.  They want normal live school.  [b]Recordings are unsafe and it makes families not participate when they can log on later.[/b]  [/quote]

Not everyone gets to work from home (or not work at all). All those essential workers -- the ones who make sure Karen's trash is picked up on time and her Washington Green Grocer order makes it safely to her doorstep -- might need those recordings to assist their kids on evenings and weekends.
