PHILADELPHIA — A Pennsylvania educator named in a webcam spying lawsuit says she never monitored students through webcams or authorized anyone else to do so.
Harriton High School vice principal Lynn Matsko responded to last week’s lawsuit through a statement Wednesday. She did not take questions.
She did not specifically address the lawsuit’s accusation that she talked to a student about “improper behavior” at home, citing images taken from his school-issued laptop’s built-in camera.
The suit charges that Lower Merion School District employees remotely activated the webcam on his laptop and photographed him at home.
District officials admit they activated webcams without notifying students, but say they did so only when computers were reported missing.
