Parents,
do you know your child’s confidential, personal school records are going to be
shared with a corporation called inBloom Inc?
This highly sensitive information will be stored on a data cloud
and disclosed to for-profit corporations to help them develop and market their
“learning products.”
The data will include your child’s names, address, photo, email,
test scores, grades, special education, economic and racial status, and most
likely detailed disciplinary, and health records as well.
Please come and hear more about this plan from advocates and
state and city education officials.
