Internet Safety-
Mary Jo Webber went over Safe Technology and Digital Citizenship
The intent of HB 213 Safe Technology Utilization and Digital Citizenship in Public Schools is to involve school community councils in and on-going discussion (at least annually) about creating a safe technology environment for students in public schools.
Administration Responsibilities– report to school community council about filters in place. Elementary, middle and high school each have different filters. Youtube and Facebook blocked at Elementary. Google Images allowed but with “Safesearch.”
Council Responsibilities- Discuss the report and decide if technology practices are appropriate, if student education implemented is appropriate and if parent/ guardian education is adequate.
Discussion came up on difficulty of controlling electronics that students bring into school. Went over that electronics are to stay in backpacks during school hours. Cannot be taken out for lunch or recess.
Altara Elementary had an Internet Safety Assembley end of October 2015 to help educate students on safe and proper internet use.
