District Acceptable Use Policy
The Frankfort-Elberta Area
School District has actively pursued making advanced technology and
increased access to learning opportunities available to our students
and staff. The Internet is a part of this information
"superhighway." We believe this computer technology will help propel
our school into the Information Age by allowing students and staff
to access and use information sources from district computers. It
will help communicate and share information with individuals or
groups of other students and staff. The Internet is a tool for
lifelong learning.
PROPER AND ETHICAL USE
With this learning tool students and staff must understand and
practice proper and ethical use. All students and staff must
understand the policies regarding procedures, ethics, and security
involving using the Internet before receiving and account name and
password in order to use the system.
CONDITIONS AND RULES FOR USE
