Reply #41: But you're there at the school's invitation.

The dates are there at the invitation of a student.

You are interacting with all the kids in a semi-official capacity. The dates are there to dance.

They expect you to be there periodically facilitating education (their official goal). A date will be there for a few hours dancing.

I don't think it's a fair comparison to say that a date at a social event warrents the same background check you got. Nor do I think it is ethical.

As you said, we'll have to agree to disagree.
