I urge every parent who sends a child to public high school to protect their child(ren) from the provision in the Leave No Child Behind Act which requires the school to turn over student information to military recruiters. You can opt your child(ren) out of submitting that information but, to do so, you must follow a set procedure. The Leave My Child Alone site provides background information as well as a valuable form letter or you can directly download your own form letter in .pdf. You can find your school superintendent's contact info by clicking here. For more commentary by Wendy McElroy, please see McBlog.
