Military Recruiters in Schools

By IndyKids Staff

The U.S. military advertises to try to get people to sign up. A lot of this advertising is aimed at high school students. The Department of Defense has a huge database of high school students’ private information. Hope Reichbach received many calls from military recruiters when she was a high school student. Hope, with more students and lawyers, challenged the military. Hope said, “I got involved… because I just wanted the military to leave me and other students alone.”

Because of their actions the military now limits the information that it collects and how it uses it. Still, high schools must give students’ information to the military under the No Child Left Behind Act. Students can keep their information private by submitting an “opt-out” form available at www.militaryfreezezone.org.

  1. Hiya, I am really glad I have found this info. Today bloggers publish only about gossips and internet and this is actually irritating. A good blog with exciting content, that is what I need. Thanks for keeping this website, I’ll be visiting it. Do you do newsletters? Can not find it.

  2. The subsequent time I read a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I imply, I do know it was my option to read, however I really thought youd have one thing fascinating to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about one thing that you would fix should you werent too busy on the lookout for attention.
