This agreement provides that:
● Technology resources are to be used only for learning within the district’s approved
curriculum.

teachers’ discretions.

● Personal information (name, personal address, phone number, or credit card number) is
not to be shared over the internet.
● Use of resources to access or process inappropriate material is prohibited.
● Downloading files that may be dangerous to the integrity of the network is not permitted.
● Transmission of material, information, or software in violation of district policy or federal,
state, or local law or regulation is prohibited.

disciplinary action. Such activities are illegal under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.
● Copyrighted materials must be used in accordance with district policy and applicable law.
