Episode Details

Fort Worth ISD is installing live classroom cameras in struggling schools for grades 3-5 to help students catch up when they’re absent or disciplined — but the move has sparked backlash from parents and teachers who say they weren’t properly informed.

Critics complain about inconsistent communication, while officials defend it as a tool to boost academic performance through consistent instruction.
