SELAH SCHOOL DISTRICT Procedure 2022P Electronic Resources K-20 Network Acceptable Use Guidelines/Internet Safety Requirements These procedures are written to support the Electronic Resources Policy of the board of directors and to promote positive and effective digital citizenship among students and staff. Digital citizenship represents more than technology literacy. Successful, technologically-fluent digital citizens live safely and civilly in an increasingly digital world. They recognize that information posted on the Internet is public and permanent and can have a long-term impact on an individual s life and career. Expectations for student and staff behavior online are no different from face-to-face interactions. Use of Personal Electronic Devices In accordance with all district policies and procedures, students and staff may use personal electronic devices (e.g. laptops, mobile devices and e-readers) to further the educational and research mission of the district. School staff will retain the final authority in deciding when and how students may use personal electronic devices on school grounds and during the school day. Network The district network includes wired and wireless devices and peripheral equipment, files and storage, e-mail and Internet content (blogs, websites, collaboration software, social networking sites, wikis, etc.). The district reserves the right to prioritize the use of, and access to, the network. All use of the network must support education and research and be consistent with the mission of the district. Acceptable network use by district students and staff include: A. Creation of files, digital projects, videos, web pages and podcasts using network resources in support of education and research; B. Participation in blogs, wikis, bulletin boards, social networking sites and groups and the creation of content for podcasts, e-mail and webpages that support education and research; C. With parental permission, the online publication of original educational material, curriculum related materials and student work. Sources outside the classroom or school must be cited appropriately; D. Staff use of the network for incidental personal use in accordance with all district policies and procedures; or E. Connection of personal electronic devices (wired or wireless) including portable devices with network capabilities to the district network after checking with the Technology Director to confirm that the device is equipped with up-to-date virus software, compatible network card and is configured properly. Connection of any personal electronic device is subject to all procedures in this document. Unacceptable network use by district students and staff includes but is not limited to: A. Personal gain, commercial solicitation and compensation of any kind; B. Actions that result in liability or cost incurred by the district; C. Downloading, installing and use of games, audio files, video files, games or other applications (including shareware or freeware) without permission or approval from the Technology Director; Page 1 of 14
SELAH SCHOOL DISTRICT Procedure 2022P D. Support for or opposition to ballot measures, candidates and any other political activity; E. Hacking, cracking, vandalizing, the introduction of viruses, worms, Trojan horses, time bombs and changes to hardware, software and monitoring tools; F.

Information posted, sent or stored online that could endanger others (e.g., bomb construction, drug manufacturing); I. Accessing, uploading, downloading, storage and distribution of obscene, pornographic or sexually explicit material; or J. Attaching unauthorized devices to the district network. Any such device will be confiscated and additional disciplinary action may be taken. The district will not be responsible for any damages suffered by any user, including but not limited to, loss of data resulting from delays, non-deliveries, mis-deliveries or service interruptions caused by his/her own negligence or any other errors or omissions. The district will not be responsible for unauthorized financial obligations resulting from the use of, or access to, the district s computer network or the Internet. Internet Safety Personal Information and Inappropriate Content: A. Students and staff should not reveal personal information, including a home address and phone number on web sites, blogs, podcasts, videos, social networking sites, wikis, e-mail or as content on any other electronic medium; B. Students and staff should not reveal personal information about another individual on any electronic medium without first obtaining permission; C. No student pictures or names can be published on any public class, school or district website unless the appropriate permission has been obtained according to district policy; and D. If students encounter dangerous or inappropriate information or messages, they should notify the appropriate school authority. Filtering and Monitoring Filtering software is used to block or filter access to visual depictions that are obscene and all child pornography in accordance with the Children s Internet Protection Act (CIPA). Other objectionable material could be filtered. The determination of what constitutes other objectionable material is a local decision. A. Filtering software is not 100 percent effective. While filters make it more difficult for objectionable material to be received or accessed, filters are not a solution in themselves. Every user must take responsibility for his/her use of the network and Internet and avoid objectionable sites; B. Any attempts to defeat or bypass the district s Internet filter or conceal Internet activity are prohibited (e.g., proxies, https, special ports, modifications to district browser settings and any other techniques designed to evade filtering or enable the publication of inappropriate content); C. E-mail inconsistent with the educational and research mission of the district will be considered SPAM and blocked from entering district e-mail boxes; Page 2 of 14

The first line of defense in controlling access by minors to inappropriate material on the Internet is deliberate and consistent monitoring of student access to district devices; E. Staff members who supervise students, control electronic equipment or have occasion to observe student use of said equipment online, must make a reasonable effort to monitor the use of this equipment to assure that student use conforms to the mission and goals of the district; F.

Age appropriate materials will be made available for use across grade levels; and B. Training on online safety issues and materials implementation will be made available for administration, staff and families. Copyright Downloading, copying, duplicating and distributing software, music, sound files, movies, images or other copyrighted materials without the specific written permission of the copyright owner is generally prohibited. However, the duplication and distribution of materials for educational purposes is permitted when such duplication and distribution falls within the Fair Use Doctrine of the United States Copyright Law (Title 17, USC) and content is cited appropriately. Ownership of Work All work completed by employees as part of their employment will be considered property of the district. The District will own any and all rights to such work including any and all derivative works, unless there is a written agreement to the contrary. All work completed by students as part of the regular instructional program is owned by the student as soon as it is created, unless such work is created while the student is acting as an employee of the school system or unless such work has been paid for under a written agreement with the school system. If under an agreement with the district, the work will be considered the property of the District. Staff members must obtain a student s permission prior to distributing his/her work to parties outside the school. Network Security and Privacy Network Security Passwords are the first level of security for a user account. System logins and accounts are to be used only by the authorized owner of the account for authorized district purposes.

SELAH SCHOOL DISTRICT FORM: 2022 F1A COMPUTER AND INTERNET ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY Internet access is available to students and staff members in the Selah School District. The District s goal in providing this service is to promote educational excellence in our schools by facilitating resource sharing, innovation, and communication. Students and staff can have access to: limited electronic mail communication with people all over the world; information and news from government agencies, research institutions, libraries, and other external sources; and, resources stored on the District intranet. With access to computers and people all over the world also comes the availability of material that may not be considered to be appropriate in the context of a school setting. On a global network, it is impossible to control all materials, and an industrious user may discover controversial information. Selah School District firmly believes that the valuable information and interaction available on this worldwide network outweigh the possibility that users may procure material that is not consistent with the educational goals of the District. Selah School District has chosen to make Internet resources available to students, with the consequence that they will have access to far more information than is available in their school s library. If a Selah School District student chooses to access resources that are objectionable, adult-oriented, or restricted, the consequences will include disciplinary action, suspension or termination of access privileges. Computer and Internet Terms and Conditions 1) Acceptable Use - The use of school computers must support education and research that is consistent with the educational goals of Selah School District. Use of school computers or District Internet access merely for entertainment or another purpose unrelated to school work is not acceptable. Use of another organization s network or computing resources must comply with the rules appropriate for that network. Any use of the network for commercial or for-profit purposes is prohibited. Any use of the network for political lobbying is prohibited. Transmission of any material in violation of U.S. or state regulation is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to: copyrighted material, threatening or obscene material, or material protected by trade secret. 2) Computer and Internet Rules - Users must abide by the generally accepted rules of etiquette. These include (but are not limited to) the following: A) Use appropriate language.

B) Do not reveal personal addresses, phone numbers, or passwords of students, teachers, administrators, or other staff of Selah School District, including yourself.

Selah School District specifically denies any responsibility for the accuracy or quality of information obtained through District accounts. Information (including text, graphics, video, etc.) from Internet sources used in student papers and reports must be cited much like references to printed materials. 4) Security - Security on any computer system is a high priority. If you feel you can identify a security problem on the network, you must notify a teacher or principal. Do not demonstrate the problem to other users. Users shall not intentionally seek information on, obtain copies of, or modify files, other data, or passwords belonging to other users, or misrepresent other users on the network. System log-ins or accounts are to be used only by the authorized owner of the account. Users may not share their account or password with another person. Attempts to gain unauthorized access to system programs or computer equipment will result in cancellation of user privileges. Any user identified as a security risk or having a history of problems with other computer systems may be denied access to District computers. The District also reserves the right to review e-mail sent or received on the District system to improve safety and system integrity. Page 5 of 14

Vandalism is defined as any malicious attempt to harm, modify, or destroy computer hardware, software, documents of another user, the Internet, or any of the other networks that are connected to the Internet backbone. This includes, but is not limited to, the intentional uploading or creation of computer viruses. 6) Inappropriate Use - Selah School District teachers and administrators will deem what is inappropriate use, and their decision is subject only to confirmation by the Selah School District Board of Directors. The administration, faculty, and staff of Selah School District may request the suspension or termination of Internet access and/or computer use of any user who violates these acceptable use practices. 7) Notice to Parents - An approved inservice is required of any District employee who will be supervising students in accessing the District Network and/or Internet.
