Cover yours! Get an OK from YOUR parents, and file it in YOUR file cabinet. Parents are notorious for not always reading what they sign, especially at the beginning of the year. Also, something (like a nasty divorce) can happen in mid-year and change the status for a child. It's probably a good idea to send home (and post on your website) when you will be uploading anything with the kids in it. Most parents will welcome their child getting a highlight, but because of that tiny, small…

It's probably a good idea to send home (and post on your website) when you will be uploading anything with the kids in it. Most parents will welcome their child getting a highlight, but because of that tiny, small number that it doesn't apply to, you better be overcautious rather than undercautious. Hi Anne,
Thanks for your fee…tag:www.classroom20.com,2009-04-24:649749:Comment:3332532009-04-24T00:31:44.788ZMichael Stevensonhttps://www.classroom20.com/profile/MichaelStevenson
Hi Anne,<br />
<br />
Thanks for your feedback. As a golden rule, I never have kids divulge any personal information whatsoever. My question is specifically about videos and/or photos of the kids, eg. completing activity.<br />
<br />
When they enroll their kids at our school, parents agree to the school photographing and videoing kids for educational purposes. I'm just not sure if this is enough.<br />

Are you aware that children are sometimes in witness protections and other programs which would put the child in serious danger if their location, even their school was known to those who would do them wrong? You MUST get the parents' permission BEFORE you post pictures of kids or anything with their name on it. NEVER put a child's last name anywhere on the internet, and be very careful with first names that are unique. In fact, it is probably best, if the children are going to post…

Are you aware that children are sometimes in witness protections and other programs which would put the child in serious danger if their location, even their school was known to those who would do them wrong? You MUST get the parents' permission BEFORE you post pictures of kids or anything with their name on it. NEVER put a child's last name anywhere on the internet, and be very careful with first names that are unique. In fact, it is probably best, if the children are going to post online, that each one adopts or is assigned an "online name", first name only and very generic: John-1, John-2, Mary-1, Mary-2. There is entirely too much danger on the Internet for children to ignore!
