A spokeswoman for the district, Gail Crantz, said it complies with all government regulations for wireless networks.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the 5,000 students in the district have access to carts of laptop computers to do research on the Internet from their desks, said Steve Chowanski, director of information services for the district.<\/p>\n<p>An estimated 30 million Wi-Fi networks have been installed worldwide, according to the Wi-Fi Alliance, which certifies wireless products. Brian Grimm, a spokesman for the group, said he is unaware of other similar suits targeting Wi-Fi networks.<\/p>\n<p>According to Chowanski, a small group of parents had complained about the risks of installing wireless networks in the school. In response, the school board said it would continue to monitor research into the safety of the networks but reaffirmed its plan to use Wi-Fi.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are not going to do anything different,&#8221; Chowanski said. &#8220;This is the wave of the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The complaint by the parents was filed Sept. 26 in the Circuit Court of Cook County in Illinois. A hearing before Judge Nancy Arnold is scheduled for February.<\/p>\n<p>The parents allege that the district failed to examine the impact the networks could have on growing children&#8217;s health. They are seeking class-action status for their suit, which seeks to halt the use of wireless networks.<\/p>\n<p>Calls to the parents and their lawyers were not immediately returned.<\/p>\n<p>The Wi-Fi Alliance says Wi-Fi networks are safe. The radio waves in a Wi-Fi network use the same frequency as wireless home phones, and have one-thirtieth the power of cordless phones, said Grimm, the spokesman for the group.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wired.com\/science\/discoveries\/news\/2003\/10\/60769\">http:\/\/www.wired.com\/science\/discoveries\/news\/2003\/10\/60769<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022\u2022<\/p>\n<h2>Wi-Fi in Schools Risks Students Health says Rhode Island Teacher<\/h2>\n<p>Published on Feb 11, 2016<\/p>\n<div id=\"watch-description-text\">\n<p id=\"eow-description\">This Math teacher states WiFi in classrooms is worse than a cell tower and has measurements to prove it.

The Guidelines were delivered to a meeting of the Health and Safety Conference of the New York State United Teachers (NYSUT) in Saratoga Springs, N.Y. on March 14th.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s a rush to make every classroom in America a wireless classroom, on the presumption that wireless radiation is completely safe,&#8221; says Patricia Wood, Executive Director of Grassroots Environmental Education, which created the Guidelines based on input from researchers, medical professionals and radiation experts. &#8220;But the weight of scientific evidence pointing to potential health impacts, not only for students, but for teachers, especially pregnant teachers, should compel us to take a precautionary approach.\u00a0 It&#8217;s just common sense.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/grassrootsinfo.org\/emerging-science-on-wireless-radiation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Recent studies<\/a>\u00a0at Yale University and other institutions around the world have demonstrated significant biological effects from exposure to wireless radiation. In one recent study, pregnant mice exposed to radiation from a cell phone had offspring that exhibited symptoms similar to ADHD in children. Many other studies have also reported behavioral abnormalities resulting from exposure to wireless radiation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A growing body of science is indicating links between exposure to wireless radiation and health impacts including neurological deficits and neurobehavioral disorders,&#8221; says Joel Moskowitz, Director and Principal Investigator of the Center for Family and Community Health at the University of California, Berkeley.\u00a0 &#8220;These guidelines will help reduce microwave radiation exposure among students and teachers. I recommend every teacher in the nation pay attention to them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have enough evidence to justify\u00a0taking action and we are not willing to wait until our members, their children and the students suffer health consequences from not doing anything,&#8221; says Paul Pecorale, Vice President of NYSUT.\u00a0&#8220;The history of occupational disease shows the devastating consequences of doing just\u00a0that.
