Internet Access Permission Form 2020-2021
Independent student use of District computer networks (including the Internet) will be permitted upon submission of permission forms by parents of minor students (under 18 years of age). This Sanborn Regional School District Policy is listed under JICL-E in the policy manual.
Student Expectations in Use of the Internet
Students are expected to follow general school rules for behavior when using District computer networks. Access is a privilege, not a right. Network storage areas may be treated like school lockers. Network administrators may review files and communications to maintain system integrity and insure that users are using the system responsibly. Users should not expect that files stored on district servers will always be private.
Guidelines for Student Expectations in Use of District Computer Networks and the Internet are detailed in School District policy JICL and reprinted in the student handbook. At a minimum, the following are not permitted:
- Revealing personal information (address, phone number, etc.)
- Using fake names or pseudonyms
- Sending or displaying offensive messages or pictures
- Using obscene language, accessing pornographic material, etc.
- Harassing, insulting or attacking others
- Damaging computers, computer systems or networks
- Violating copyright laws, plagiarism
- Using other' passwords
- Trespassing in others' folders, work or files
- Intentionally wasting limited resources
- Employing network for commercial purposes
