Heck, give enough of a "reward" or "prize", and we can get them to turn in their parents too.
I think the comment at the end of the article says it best - "Bad Civics".

--- Quote --- "Everyone just thinks it's a joke. No one is going to tell on their friends for cash," said senior Katie Burnes, president of the school's National Honor Society chapter. "If someone brings a gun to school or is doing drugs in the bathroom, no one has to pay me to let the teachers know."

This is pretty much how I see it working out. kids who would tell, are going to tell anyways. kids who won't tell on thier friends still wont tell on thier friends even for money. (Its that whole anti establishment thing.) and then there will be a few A-holes who will try to get $ for F'ing with people.

Imagine the negative impact if they acctually get all the kids to tell on each other. It would create a generation of kids that trusut NO ONE. we are already sceptical enough as a group without having them feel like those in charge are bribing your friends to be spies.
