The application KCS forces onto student’s computers called “Linewize”, which is supposed to filter many websites which distracts students. This unfortunately does not work most of the time because students always find a way around as Kaden Mourer a junior states: “Students will just find ways around it which wastes more time.” For context, this student is known for finding ways around Linewize such as “Noah’s Tutoring Hub”.
The parent company known as “Qoria”, is located in Australia, which is on the opposite side of the Earth. Most students and staff did not know this about Linewize and when they are given that information they are surprised and disappointed, as Kaden Mourer states: “We should be using American data in American companies”. 2 students believe that Linewize does not actually help students stay on task as Kaden Mourer states when he was asked “Do you think Linewize helps students stay on task?” : “No, I believe it distracts students” or as Randy Ogelsby, a junior states: “Block stuff that actually matters”.
