When they are supposed to be at school and aren't, then finding them isn't a privacy issue. But, if it is about recouping ADA, then have your Community Attendance Workers/Truancy officers do a better job. <br /><br />Once a kid leaves school, they have every right to privacy and the chip goes silent.

On campus, in school, whatever.
