Washington school making students wear Covid-alerting monitors
A Washington state public high school has been condemned for forcing student athletes to wear ankle bracelets to help with COVID track and tracing efforts.
Eatonville High School bought the monitors, made by a company called Triax, for both coaches and students in high-contact and moderate-contact sports.
Students who play volleyball, basketball, football and soccer are required by the school to wear the device.
The ‘TraceTag’ has visual and audible sensors that alert students when they are too close to each other, while also collecting contact-trace data later used to identify which students have had contact with other players who have tested positive for COVID-19.
That means it could be used to alert a student if they’d been in close contact with someone who has the virus.
According to the manufacturer’s website, the device can be attached to a hat or a helmet or be worn in the body.
Both vaccinated and unvaccinated students at Eatonville are currently required to wear the devices, but only unvaccinated students are required to quarantine for 14 days in case of a positive case of COVID-19 detected in the contact-trace data.
 The device, meant to collect contact-trace data in case of COVID-19 infections, was likened to the ankle monitors used by individuals under house arrest.
But the move sparked widespread anger among parents after it was reported online, with many outraged at the similarity to devices used to track criminals on bail or probation.
‘Over my dead body, My kids would not participate and very well may take them out of school and do online schooling if I had kids in that school. Ankle monitors are for criminals not children,’ commented Holly Laubsch on a Facebook post.
The measure has been deemed extreme and invasive, as vaccine and mask mandates have prompted a heated debate in states across the US, and fears of government overreach grow among parents.
‘Some of this stuff is getting NEW WORLD ORDERISH, and if anything, intrusive, overbearing and overreaching,’ commented Facebook user Khari Nellum.
Terry Elliot also voiced her discontent: ‘This is ridiculous! It’s almost like you’re shaming the students. If that’s not a form of bullying I don’t know what is.
‘The only students that have to wear the monitors have not had the Covid vaccine yet. Kids have enough stress these days.’
Only one Facebook user seemed to support the measure. ‘Being pro-active is a excellent way to Contact Trace, since it is inevitable that at least one person will get the virus or even have a positive Covid test. Great thinking on someone’s part,’ David Giezentanner commented.
Despite the backlash, the Eatonville School District initially defended its decision, citing that the process had included ‘an invitation to a parent meeting, communication from the coach and a parent consent form.’
But school board director Matt Marshall told The Post Millennial on Wednesday evening that their use had been halted amid the uproar. He said they had been ‘shelved the devices until proper procedures including community input and board approval process occur.’
The mother of a 15-year-old who missed the parents meeting, drove to the school after her daughter texted her in the middle of a school day that she was being asked to wear an ankle monitor.
She then spoke with coach Gavin Kralik, who explained that options to opt-out from wearing the device had been discussed in the meeting and allegedly apologized for the ‘slip up’ of not getting her consent, PMÂ reported.
The mother was allowed to take a picture of the device but only on Kralik’s hand, after her daughter had taken it off.
The school district refuted they are using tracking devices on students, calling them ‘proximity monitors’ instead, adding that there should not be concern about the student’s privacy because the device is only worn during practice.
The school was able to fund the monitors with a grant they received and allocated for COVID-19 logistics in the sports department, after practices were constantly canceled when an athlete tested positive for COVID-19.
‘We received grant funding that specifically included provisions to support higher-risk athletic programs, and we used some of those funds to pay for athletic proximity monitors,’
‘We are using these monitors for high contact and moderate indoor contact sports. The monitors are for both staff (coaches) and students on the field, regardless if they are vaccinated or unvaccinated.’
‘The monitor is only worn during participation in the sport,’Â read a statement by the school.
The devices were also implemented as a way to reduce the inconvenience of submitting students and staff to constant testing.
The school board is scheduled to meet on Wednesday to talk in more detail about the program and its future after the backlash received.
A similar technique to contact trace COVID-19 infection in players is used by the NFL.
‘A lightweight, wearable device, called a Proximity Recording Device, is mandatory for players and club personnel when at the club facility, during practices, and during team travel.
‘The device gathers information about individuals’ proximity to each other – by distance and length of time – in order to perform quick and accurate contact tracing when someone is symptomatic or tests positive for COVID-19,’ read a post on the NFL website.
They also assured that the device didn’t work as a GPS, hence couldn’t store the location or identity of the players.

Another example of how our school systems have degenerated into efforts to waste tax dollars on anything but educating students. All the whole education institutions need to be scrapped and the idiot useless administrators and teachers fired.

Well said Herb. If it’s not this nonsense, it’s climate indoctrination.

Well “education” in modern “freemason” systems was always about control, slavery, subjugation, degeneration, indoctrination and worshiping those institutions.

“Obedience Training for the Masses”. Talk about criminalizing the Non-Vaccinated, making them wear ankle monitors! Preparing people to accept The Mark.

Yes and get them when they are young.
I can just see the propaganda about how unsightly and exclusive these ankle tags are and how a new improved under the skin chip vetsion would be so much more socially acceptable, if not ‘cool’.
Another viewpoint on this could be its going to protect the uninjected kids from the spike proteins shedding from the injected kids?

The shedding is inconsequential, relatively.
Basically, either you reject the edict of vaccines, pasteur/rockefeller methodology, or don’t. If you do not reject them, you cannot be saved.

It’s a chinese cleaner, but I should probably call it washington…you know, if I look at how “people” are enamoured by sterile industrial obsoleted objects.

But you see, since you have a defined interpretation…you just don’t quite get it…

Strictly, enamoured, would mean enabling the capacity of being loved. And you can only be loved, if for instance, you are a compliant zombiedronerobosheepclone with your RDA of vaccines that probably definitely don’t affect your ability for thought, while being “updated” with rather particular cellular instructions. Such as unwanted exercise (for global warming purposes and green manure).

Btw, I appreciate you allowing me to rant in this preemptive eulogy.

It’s NOT acceptable. The School District and their School, should be re-staffed completely, with people who don’t get off, on inflicting Mental and Physical Torture on their Pupils and, along with that David Giezentanner Cock Womble, the bloody lot of these Criminal Psychopaths should be strung up, along with everyone else promoting this Covid BS.
These are blatant Crimes against Humanity and should NOT be tolerated.
Even if their SARS-CoV-2 was proven to exist and wasn’t “Medical Tyranny”, to Children, we are talking a few sniffles or Common Cold symptoms, at worst, and injecting them with Experimental mRNA technology is Evil beyond belief.
This lot is beyond unforgivable.
The lot of them should be held accountable for their actions and made an example of, to End this Mass Child Abuse once and for all.
Covid-19 is an “Agenda” , NOT a Medical Emergency.
This is all about Mass Human DNA Experimentation and Mass Depopulation.
I can’t believe people can’t see this yet?
We are ALL being Murdered by Proxy and Ordered to Suicide through acts of Self-Harm, by the Corporate Terrorist Governments, with help from MSM, all in the name of a dud Plandemic.
The sooner the better, for “Nuremberg Trials” to start up again.

Simple solution … just refuse to wear the monitor … If the school says you can not do practice then find some other sport to do like yoga, walking, etc. If everyone refuses, then what will the school do??? Time for quiet civil disobedience and protests … Teachers are YOUR employees and YOU pay their salary with your TAXES!!!
