IST (Information Services and Technology) cannot restrict internet access to district devices for security purposes. Students’ internet is managed by an appropriate filter policy. The goal of the filter is to strike a balance of access and security. Filtering systems are helpful, but they are not a replacement for discussions, monitoring, and lessons about online safety. If there are inappropriate websites students are visiting, please submit a request to block the website.
Continual misuse of the internet should be addressed at the building level between the student and administration with a conversation about digital citizenship. Administration may deem it necessary to restrict the student's use on the device for a while.
Visit our Inno8 site for more information on requesting sites to be blocked.
