  3. What are some of the potential benefits of schools using facial recognition technology? Robert LiPuma, the Lockport City School District’s director of technology, believes that if the technology had been in place, the school shooting in Parkland, Fla., may never have happened. Do you agree? less shooting  chances

  4. What are the potential dangers of facial recognition in schools?

Studies have shown that some of the most popular surveillance systems exhibited bias, falsely identifying African-American and Asian faces 10 to 100 times more than Caucasian faces and exhibiting a higher rate of mistaken matches among children.
