Student's expulsion for refusing to wear RFID tag put on hold until next week

Student's expulsion for refusing to wear RFID tag put on hold until next week:
A San Antonio high school student was told she would be expelled last week for refusing to wear an RFID tag (a small, battery-powered radio transceiver) that would let school staff track her location on campus. Now, Wired reports that sophomore Andrea Hernandez has won a temporary restraining order blocking the expulsion until a hearing is conducted next week. Hernandez’s months-long fight with the Northside Independent School District over its Student Locator Project has often appealed to religious freedom, but the use of RFID in schools has also been roundly criticized by groups like EPIC, the EFF, and the ACLU on the grounds that it dehumanizes students and staff, raises concerns for free speech, and carries the potential for abuse.
