WHAT THEY REGULATE

Guidelines shall address teacher supervision of student computer use,
ethical use of electronic media (including, but not limited to, the Internet, e-mail, and other
District technological resources), and issues of privacy versus administrative review of electronic
files and communications. In addition, guidelines shall prohibit utilization of networks for
prohibited or illegal activities, the intentional spreading of embedded messages, or the use of
other programs with the potential of damaging or destroying programs or data.
