Fingerprints for Food

A high school district in Los Angeles, California starts to use a fingerprint scanning system to record children's lunch purchases. Yvonne Edwards, principal at Foshay Learning Center says it is safer because students don't have to bring money to school. She says it speeds up the line and eliminates problems with privacy, students' rights, and forgotten lunch money. Some parents disagree with the system saying that they are only children, and it is just lunch. I think the lunches should be more delicious and nutritious if students will be fingerprinted like lunch is all important. The district will spread the system to all schools who will accept it by 2012.
