Lower Merion School District, Back in Court 0

Lower Merion School District, outside of Philly, has been sued again.

That’s the school district that was surreptitously taking pictures of schoolkids via webcams, because they could.

A school district near Philadelphia that paid out $610,000 to settle a complaint over spying allegations related to school-owned laptops has been hit with a similar lawsuit.

The Philadelphia Inquirer reports a former Harriton High School student filed suit against Lower Merion School District on Monday over the monitoring software installed on laptops given to students.

The school district claims he’s suing just for the money.

I have little sympathy with them.

Let them pay. Consider it the price of arrogance.

Full Disclosure:

I used to live in Lower Merion, many years ago.

Great place to live.

Excellent schools. Great teachers. Dumb administrators. (Sort of like many other school districts.)
