Greenburgh Central 7

Description

The Greenburgh Central School District No. 7 Board of Education uses computers as one way of enhancing its mission to teach the skills, knowledge, and behaviors that students and staff will need to be successful. The District’s computers, networks, software, audio/video equipment and supplies, and email provide opportunities to explore and use a varied and exciting set of resources, including computer programs, CD’s, and the Internet. The District demands that people who use the school’s computers, networks, software, audio/video equipment and supplies, and email, will do so in a way that is consistent with its educational mission. Specifically, we demand that: -No person will deliberately or willfully cause damage to district computers, networks, software, audio/video equipment and supplies, and Email, or assist others in doing the same. -No person will deliberately access or distribute educationally inappropriate materials or show others how to do the same. This is particularly important in light of the fact that the very strength of the Internet (its largely unregulated and unregulatable nature offers thousands of different places to visit) means that some Internet sites contain sexually explicit or other material, such as television, video streaming, music, movies or other programs which clearly is unrelated to the school’s educational mission. -Each person will respect the rights of others to the privacy of the files they store on a computer or a disk and not view those files without the owner’s permission, or alter or damage such files. -Each person will respect and uphold Intellectual Property Laws, including by not limited to Copyright Laws. -Each person will follow any other regulations posted in the room where computers and/or similar technologies are in use. -Each person will follow the directions of the adult in charge of the room where computers and/or similar technologies are in use. Permission for a student or staff member to use the school’s computers, networks, software, audio and video equipment and supplies, and email, is dependent upon a student and his or her parent/guardian completing the District’s computer use agreement. Signing the form shows that the student or staff member understands and will follow the school’s computer rules. Failure to follow the rules will result in a student or staff member being denied the opportunity to use the District’s computers and/or disciplinary action, as appropriate.
