These are the things that I felt was most important to know about the technology rules in the school district that I am interning at this semester.

The Purpose is: To establish the board’s vision and the basic structure for the use of technology resources in instruction.

These are the types that are restricted in the school district.

Prohibited material includes, but is not limited to, the following:
 obscenity or pornography
 threats
 material that is intended, or could reasonably be perceived, to be harassing or discriminatory
 inappropriate use of material that is copyrighted or protected by trade secret
 material used to further any commercial business, product advertising, virus transmission or
political activity
 material that is potentially disruptive of the learning environment

The school district I am at gives all of the students and staff district emails. Because of this they have a set of rules that everyone must abide by:

The district prohibits the use of its email system for unprofessional and/or inappropriate purposes to include, but not be limited to, the following:
 creating, transmitting or receiving emails containing any language or depictions that could reasonably be perceived by others as being offensive, threatening, obscene, sexual, racist or discriminatory
 any use that violates local, state and/or federal laws or regulations
 setting up or operating a commercial business
 E-mail signatures should not include religious statements, political statements, or
group/organization memberships

The district allows the teachers and the students to use Google Classroom. Here are the rules that they have on using Google Classroom.

The G Suite for Education accounts are managed by the district and offer additional
protections and restrictions over private accounts. The student accounts include:
● Google Drive that offers unlimited online storage as well as powerful tools such as Docs
and Slides that allow students to create and store a variety of files.
● Google email that is restricted to the district accounts.
*Kindergarten – 4th grade elementary email accounts are suspended and cannot send or
receive email.

*5th grade, Middle School and High School email accounts are restricted
and only allow students to send or receive from other district accounts.

*The only exception is PlanetHS which is used by student athletes to register
and process eligibility requirements.
● Electronic monitoring services that promote the safest possible online experiences for
students.
