Otsego Elementary School Faculty Handbook - Half Hollow Hills

INTERNET USAGE
In our efforts to prepare our students for life in a global twenty-first century
society, all our classrooms are equipped with computers that have Internet
access. In addition, we have several laptop carts in the building.
Teachers should be instructing students on how to effectively use the
Internet to access information and research topics. Although the Internet
is a useful and powerful tool, it can raise safety concerns if inappropriate
material is accessed. In an attempt to ensure the safety of our students,
please be sure to take the following precautions when using the Internet in
the classroom:
• All students, parents, and staff are required to sign an Internet Use
Agreement BEFORE they will be allowed to use the Internet.
• Any user who violates the rules of the contract may have his/her
Internet use privileges revoked. Violation of the agreement may also
result in disciplinary and/or legal actions.
• Students MUST be supervised AT ALL TIMES when using the
Internet.
