SUBJECT:
INTERNET CONTROL FILTERING (#8361)
The Malone Central School District, in accordance with the provisions of
the Children’s Internet Protection Act, requires all District computers with
Internet access that are used by elementary and secondary students to be
equipped with filtering or blocking technology.
Once this filtering/blocking technology is in place, newly acquired
computers with Internet access used by elementary or secondary students must be
linked to this technology within ten (10) days of installation.
No filtering technology can guarantee that students will be prevented
from accessing inappropriate locations.
Proper supervision will be provided to all students while accessing the
Internet to further ensure appropriate usage.
Under certain supervised circumstances, authorized personnel may override
the filtering/blocking technology for a limited, prescribed period of time to
assist students with special projects or research.
District guidelines will be developed to implement this component of the
policy.
