Quote from the school: “We recently became aware of randomly generated questions in the survey that contain college-level content that may be inappropriate for high school students,”

Um, I don’t want to pay $70k a year for some college to delve into that either. How about the rest of you folks?

We solved that by telling the kiddos no access no $$$.

They all went to college, one is still in. We paid roughly half of in-state tuition, none lived at home more than a week (except when one had surgery) since graduation. We haven't given any of them any money (other than birthday, Christmas) since they graduated.

forbids parents from accessing their child's academic record without the permission of the child

Honk fucking honk

No parent whose kid refuses them "permission" to see his report card needs to wonder what kind of grades the dolt is getting. Just the refusal is the kid's ticket to the proverbial woodshed.

In our house the little brat would be first whipped with a switch he himself picks out, then grounded with good books only, no TV, phone, games, music, or computer except for schoolwork (of which there would be PLENTY, that I can tell you) for as many months as it took to convince him to give his magical "permission".

What a joke.

I don't think "randomly generated" means what they think it means.

If it was in fact randomly generated, then as Scott Adams would say, the A.I. has already taken control.

So they are admitting to not knowing the content of the lessons. I don't believe that is true. SOMEONE at that school had to have read the survey before pushing in front of the students.
