I thought this was a crazy conspiracy theory?

Connecticut school district tests RFID to track students and staff

New Canaan Public Schools have been invited to participate in a technology experiment — one that would involve potentially placing radio frequency strips on student or staff ID cards or on school items such as laptops to enhance security and increase efficiencies.

However, the school board is awaiting more information before deciding whether to jump on board.

SecureRF Corporation in Westport, a company that examines ways to use and market radio frequency identification tags (RFID), recently approached members of the district after applying for a $100,000 grant from the National Science Foundation to conduct science research.

The company is looking to examine ways to use RF technology in commercial practices and schools, and Founder and Chief Executive Officer Louis Parks is casting his eyes on the New Canaan district to help explore different ideas.
