Your Child’s School Doesn’t Want You Asking These Questions

Are your children's schools secretly mining their data? In this episode of Unmasking Government Schools, we sit down with Rhonda Thomas, Founder and President of Truth in Education, to expose the alarming reality of student data collection — and what parents can do about it. In this episode: 🔍 Student Data Mining — Schools are collecting far more than grades and attendance. Behavioral data, emotional profiles, and attitudinal information are being tracked, surveyed, and stored — often without parental consent. 📜 FERPA Loopholes — Learn how the very law meant to protect student privacy has been gutted by exceptions that allow schools to share your child's data with third-party vendors, contractors, and tech companies. 💻 Technology & AI in Schools — Programs like Go Guardian, Gaggle, and Lightspeed monitor student searches, emails, and keystrokes — even at home. AI is increasingly replacing teachers. Is this education — or training for compliance? 🏫 Ideologies in Private & Christian Schools — Even faith-based schools aren't immune. Find out how SEL, CRT, and accreditation requirements are quietly reshaping curricula across all school types. 🎬 "Educated for Liberty" Documentary — Rhonda shares about this powerful film that connects the dots and equips parents with the evidence they need to take action. Key takeaways: - 6.3% of children are now homeschooling — and growing - Schools can act as a parent's agent, consenting to data collection by outside companies - Technology in K-8 classrooms is harming children emotionally and relationally - Government schools, in their current form, may not be redeemable — but parents ARE waking up Resources mentioned in this episode: 🌐 Truth in Education: truthandeducation.org 📧 Contact: [email protected] 📰 Substack: truth.substack.com 🎥 "Educated for Liberty" Documentary — watch free at truthandeducation.org 📖 FACE (Principle Approach): face.net 🏠 Classical Conversations & Public School Exit — homeschooling resources 🇺🇸 USPIE: uspi.org Take action: Share this episode with parents, church groups, and community leaders.
