ACCEPTABLE EMPLOYEE USE OF TECHNOLOGY RESOURCES

Policy

Computers, computer networks, Internet access, and E-mail are effective and important technological resources in today's educational environment.  The Board of Education has installed computers, a computer network, including Internet access and an E-Mail system (referred to collectively as “the computer systems”), in order to enhance both the educational opportunities for our students and the business operations of the district. 

These computer systems are business and educational tools.  As such, they are made available to Board employees for business and education related uses.  The Administration shall develop regulations setting forth procedures to be used by the Administration in an effort to ensure that such computer systems are used for appropriate business and education related purposes.  Incidental personal use of the computer systems is permitted solely for the purpose of E-mail transmissions and access to the Internet.  Such incidental personal use of the computer systems, however, is subject to all rules, including monitoring.  Personal use shall not interfere in any manner with work responsibilities.
