Is it okay for my school to do this?
My school, which is a private school in Pennsylvania, recently made a new rule saying that every student who has a facebook must have at least one faculty member or teacher added, so that they can keep an eye on us. A boy in our school made a post complaining about getting in trouble for something stupid at school, and he got in really big trouble today for posting that on facebook. Do they have the right to do that?

No! Kids should have privacy. They're not your parents. The parents should do that.

Defiantly not that invades personal privacy outside of school. If I was you and your friends I'd block the teachers and say you don't have one

No not at all. That's free speech. And them taking that from you especially off school grounds is ridiculous and unlawful.

wow thats pretty messed up. I dont think its ok for them to do that, the internet is not school property and unless your bullying a kid or plotting something against the school, they really have no business monitoring your online activity. Just the concept that your school has imagined is Orwellian and i shudder even thinking about it. On the other hand there is really nothing that you can do about it. The reason there doing this is because they are a private school and they dont have to answer to the government, meaning there is essentially noone you can report it to. Try telling your parents ad having them write the school. Send out an email to other parents at the school and try to get them to complain as well. This is why im glad that i go to a public high school haha.

No. That is invading privacy and is illegal. I would talk to your parents about telling the governed or something. Since it is a private school there probably isn't a school district like a public school has, so that would be about your only option. I personally would send an email, but if you want to go talk to him:her then the more power to you! If that doesn't work, send an email to the president. He doesn't read the emails but his staff does, and the issue will get taken care of. Good luck

Thats illegal. My school tried doin the sane shit. Dont let it happen. Delete the facultiy member and block every single teacher. Then keep it under the ratar and tell everybody to delete them. Then if they catch you, make sure youre parents are on youre side but then if they yell at you yell back and let it all out. Get pumped up and have a small speech readey because trouble will happen. But just rember, they cant do a thing if you just act tough. They go for weak kids. They love it. So dont cry, have a list of arguments ready and have atleast 2 supportting details. Pennsulvania does not allow that. Especcally in philadelphia
