    Authorization: Only those students who have signed an agreement form and provided written permission from parents/guardians may access the District Computer System (DCS).
    Standards of Conduct Governing Student access to the DCS: Inappropriate use of the DCS may result in disciplinary action, including suspension or cancellation of access. Prior to suspension or revocation of access to the DCS, students will be afforded applicable due process rights. Each student who is granted access will be responsible for that usage.
    The DCS is provided for students in support of their educational program and to conduct research and communicate with others. Student access to external computer networks not controlled by the District is provided to students who act in a considerate and responsible manner. Individual users of the District's computerized information resources are responsible for their behavior and communications over the District computer network.
    It is presumed that users will comply with District standards and will honor the agreements they have signed. Student data files and other electronic storage areas will be treated like school lockers. This means that such areas shall be considered to be school district property and subject to control and inspection. The computer coordinator may access all such files and communications to insure system integrity and that users are complying with the requirements of District policy and regulations regarding student access to the DCS.
    Students should NOT expect that information stored on the DCS will be private as it becomes and is considered to be property of the DCS.
    During school, teachers will guide students toward appropriate materials. Outside of school, parents/guardians bear responsibility for such guidance as they do with information sources such as television, telephones, movies, radio and other potentially offensive/controversial media.
