JANUARY 28, 2019 ATTACHMENT A RIDGEWOOD POLICY BOARD OF EDUCATION PROGRAM 2361/page 1 of 6 Acceptable Use of Computer Networks/Computers/ Personal Electronic Devices (PEDS) and Resources M 2361 ACCEPTABLE USE OF COMPUTER NETWORKS/COMPUTERS/PERSONAL ELECTRONIC DEVICES (PEDS) AND RESOURCES
The Board of Education recognizes as new technologies shift the manner in which information is accessed, communicated and transferred; these changes will alter the nature of teaching and learning. Access to technology will allow students to explore databases, libraries, Internet sites, and bulletin boards while exchanging information with individuals throughout the world. The Board supports access by students to these information sources but reserves the right to limit in-school use to materials appropriate for educational purposes. The Board directs the Superintendent to affect training of teaching staff members in skills appropriate to analyzing and evaluating such resources as to appropriateness for educational purposes.
The Board also recognizes technology allows students access to information sources that have not been pre-screened by educators using Board approved standards. The Board therefore adopts the following standards of conduct for the use of computer networks/computers and PEDs and declares unethical, unacceptable or illegal behavior as just cause for taking disciplinary action, limiting or revoking network access privileges, and/or instituting legal action.
The Board provides access to computer networks/computers and PEDs for educational purposes only. The Board retains the right to restrict or terminate student access to computer networks/computers and PEDs at any time, for any reason. School district personnel will monitor networks and online activity to maintain the integrity of the networks, ensure their proper use, and ensure compliance with Federal and State laws that regulate Internet safety.
Standards for Use of Computer Networks/Computers and PEDs
Any individual engaging in the following actions when using computer networks/computers and PEDs shall be subject to discipline or legal action:
A. Using the computer network(s)/computers and PEDs for illegal, inappropriate or obscene purposes, or in support of such activities. Illegal activities are defined as activities that violate federal, state, local laws and regulations. Inappropriate activities are defined as those that violate the intended use of the networks. Obscene activities shall be defined as a violation of generally accepted social standards for use of publicly owned and operated communication vehicles.
B. Using the computer network(s)/computers and PEDs to violate copyrights, institutional or third party copyrights, license agreements or other contracts. JANUARY 28, 2019 ATTACHMENT A RIDGEWOOD POLICY BOARD OF EDUCATION PROGRAM 2361/page 2 of 6 Acceptable Use of Computer Networks/Computers/ Personal Electronic Devices (PEDs) and Resources
C. Using the computer network(s)/computers and PEDs in a manner that:
1. Intentionally disrupts network traffic or crashes the network;
2. Degrades or disrupts equipment or system performance;
3. Uses the computing resources of the school district for commercial purposes, financial gain, or fraud;
4. Steals data or other intellectual property;
5. Gains or seeks unauthorized access to the files of others or vandalizes the data of another person;
6. Gains or seeks unauthorized access to resources or entities;
7. Forges electronic mail messages or uses an account owned by others;
8. Invades privacy of others;
9. Posts anonymous messages;
10. Possesses any data which is a violation of this Policy; and/or
11. Engages in other activities that do not advance the educational purposes for which computer networks/computers and PEDs are provided.
Internet Safety/Protection
As a condition for receipt of certain Federal funding, the school district shall be in compliance with the Children’s Internet Protection Act, the Neighborhood Children’s Internet Protection Act, and has installed technology protection measures for all computers in the school district, including computers in media centers/libraries. The technology protection must block and/or filter material and visual depictions that are obscene as defined in Section 1460 of Title 18, United States Code; child pornography, as defined in Section 2256 of Title 18, United States Code; are harmful to minors

including any pictures, images, graphic image file or other material or visual depiction that taken as a whole and with respect to minors, appeals to a prurient interest in nudity, sex, or excretion; or depicts, describes, or represents in a patently offensive way, with respect to what is suitable for minors, sexual acts or conduct; or taken as a whole, lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value as to minors.
This Policy also establishes Internet safety policy and procedures in the district as required in the Neighborhood Children’s Internet Protection Act. Policy 2361 addresses access by minors to inappropriate matter on the Internet and World Wide Web; the safety and security of minors when using electronic mail, chat rooms, and other forms of direct electronic communications; unauthorized access, including “hacking” and other unlawful activities by minors online; unauthorized disclosures, use, and dissemination of personal identification information regarding minors; and measures designed to restrict minors’ access to materials harmful to minors.
Notwithstanding blocking and/or filtering the material and visual depictions prohibited in the Children’s Internet Protection Act and the Neighborhood Children’s Internet Protection Act, the Board shall determine other Internet material that is inappropriate for minors.
In accordance with the provisions of the Children’s Internet Protection Act, the Superintendent of Schools or designee will develop and ensure education is provided to every student regarding appropriate online behavior, including students interacting with other individuals on social networking sites and/or chat rooms, and cyberbullying awareness and response.
The Board will provide reasonable public notice and will hold one annual public hearing during a regular monthly Board meeting or during a designated special Board meeting to address and receive public community input on the Internet safety policy – Policy and Regulation 2361. Any changes in Policy and Regulation since the previous year’s annual public hearing will also be discussed at a meeting following the annual public hearing.
The school district will certify on an annual basis, that the schools, including media centers/libraries in the district, are in compliance with the Children’s Internet Protection Act and the Neighborhood Children’s Internet Protection Act and the school district enforces the requirements of these Acts and this Policy.

Consent Requirement
No student shall be allowed to use the school district's computer networks/computers Internet and any other third party online services employed by the district unless consent is given for the student by his/her parent(s) or legal guardian(s).
In order to meet our educational goals, Ridgewood Public Schools may utilize third party websites and online services, (such as sites and apps for curriculum, graphic design and foreign language), for our students. These services are used to assist with curricular and other education specific needs both inside and outside of the classroom. The school, when possible and appropriate, will utilize the education specific versions and also restrict the student information shared with these services to the minimum required for account creation.
COPPA
Congress enacted the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) in 1998 with amendments in 2012. The primary purpose of COPPA is to place parents in control over the information gathered about their children by online apps. The Rule applies to commercial websites/apps that collect, use, or disclose personal information from children, and operators of general audience websites or online services with actual knowledge that they are collecting, using or disclosing personal information from children under 13.
For students under the age of 13, COPPA permits school districts, such as ours, to provide consent to the collection of personal information strictly for educational purposes on behalf of all of its students. This eliminates the need for parents to provide direct consent to each digital service the school utilizes in your child's instruction.
Parents wishing to deny access to these educational tools, must do so in writing to the principal indicating their child should be denied access to these tools. It should be noted that because RPS provides your child a relevant education through integrated technology, denying access to these educational tools will prove problematic for any classes utilizing Chromebooks for instructional purposes.

G Suite For Education (Formerly Google Apps for Education or GAFE)
Ridgewood Public School District uses G Suite for Education and other digital resources to facilitate learning through research, communication, collaboration and creativity. G Suite is a collection of free online applications, such as a word processor, spreadsheet, a presentation program, as well as online file storage.
G Suite is provided by Google specifically for educational institutions. As such, Google does not collect or use student data in G Suite for advertising or ad creation. In addition, all advertisements are turned off in G Suite services. So if your child is logged into his or her G Suite account, he or she will not see ads when using Google Search.
All students are given a District-owned Google account. These accounts are managed by the District and not by Google. Your child's Google account allows access to Google's online applications and file storage (Google Drive) from any web browser. Students are expected to adhere to the rules and regulations for email use as outlined in the signed District Acceptable Use of Networks/Computers Policy (AUP).
These District-issued accounts are only for educational purposes and are NOT meant for registering to online social networks (i.e. Instagram, Facebook), or subscribing to internet/public community sites that are not educational in nature, unless otherwise directed by their teacher.
Access to and use of G SUITE at schools is considered a privilege. The District maintains the right to immediately withdraw the access and use of G SUITE when there is reason to believe that violations of law or District policies have occurred. The District also reserves the right to monitor G SUITE and any online services used by students for improper use.

Pupils may not publish on or over the system any information which violates or infringes upon the rights of any other person or any information which would be abusive, profane, or sexually offensive to a reasonable person, or which, without the approval of the Superintendent of Schools or designated school district personnel, contains any advertising or any solicitation to use goods or services. A pupil cannot use the facilities and capabilities of the system to conduct any business or solicit the performance of any activity which is prohibited by law.
Because the school district provides, through connection to the Internet, access to other computer systems around the world, pupils and their parent(s) or legal guardian(s) should be advised the Board and school district personnel have no control over content. While most of the content available on the Internet is not offensive and much of it is a valuable educational resource, some objectionable material exists.
Even though the Board provides pupils access to Internet resources through the district’s computer networks/computers and PEDs with installed appropriate technology protection measures, parents and pupils must be advised that potential dangers remain and offensive material may be accessed notwithstanding the technology protection measures taken by the school district.
Pupils and their parent(s) or legal guardian(s) are advised some systems and Internet sites may contain defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, racially offensive, or otherwise illegal or offensive material. The Board and school district personnel do not condone the use of such materials and do not permit usage of such materials in the school environment. Parent(s) or legal guardian(s) having Internet access available to their children at home should be aware of the existence of such materials. Pupils knowingly bringing materials prohibited by Policy and Regulation 2361 into the school environment will be disciplined in accordance with Board policies and regulations and such activities may result in termination of such pupil’s accounts or access on the school district’s computer networks and their independent use of computers.
On-line Conduct
Any action by a pupil or other user of the school district's computer networks/computers and PEDs that is determined by school district personnel to constitute an inappropriate use of the district’s computer networks/computers or to improperly restrict or inhibit other persons from using and enjoying those resources is strictly prohibited and may result in limitation on or termination of an offending person’s

access and other consequences in compliance with Board policy and regulation. The user specifically agrees not to submit, publish, or display any defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, racially offensive, or otherwise illegal or offensive material; nor shall a user encourage the use, sale, or distribution of controlled substances. Transmission of material, information or software in violation of any local, State or Federal law is also prohibited.
Pupils and their parent(s) or legal guardian(s) specifically agree to indemnify the Ridgewood School District and school district personnel for any losses, costs, or damages, including reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by the Board relating to, or arising out of any breach of this section by the pupil.
Computer networks/computer resources and PEDs are to be used by the pupil for his/her educational use only; commercial uses are strictly prohibited.
Software Libraries on the Network
Software libraries on or through the school district’s networks are provided to pupils as an educational resource. No pupil may install, upload, or download software without the expressed consent of appropriate school district personnel. Any software having the purpose of damaging another person’s accounts or information on the school district computer networks/computers (e.g., computer viruses) is specifically prohibited. School district personnel further reserve the rights to refuse posting of files and to remove files. School district personnel further reserve the right to immediately limit usage or terminate the pupil’s access or take other action consistent with the Board's policies and regulations of a pupil who misuses the software libraries.
Copyrighted Material
Copyrighted material must not be placed on any system connected to the networks/computers without authorization. Pupils may download copyrighted material for their own use in accordance with Policy and Regulation 2531 Use of Copyrighted Materials. A pupil may only redistribute a copyrighted program with the expressed written permission of the owner or authorized person. Permission must be specified in the document, on the system, or must be obtained directly from the author or authorized source.
JANUARY 28, 2019 ATTACHMENT A RIDGEWOOD REGULATION BOARD OF EDUCATION PROGRAM R 2361/page 8 of 11 Acceptable Use of Computer Networks/ Computers/ Personal Electronic Devices (PEDs) and Resources
Public Posting Areas (Message Boards, Blogs, Etc.)
Messages are posted from systems connected to the Internet around the world and school district personnel have no control of the content of messages posted from these other systems. To best utilize system resources, school district personnel will determine message boards, blogs, etc. that are most applicable to the educational needs of the school district and will permit access to these sites through the school district computer networks. School district personnel may remove messages that are deemed to be unacceptable or in violation of Board policies and regulations. School district personnel further reserve the right to immediately terminate the access of a pupil who misuses these public posting areas.
Real-time, Interactive, Communication Areas
School district personnel reserve the right to monitor and immediately limit the use of the computer networks/computers or terminate the access of a pupil who misuses real-time conference features (talk/chat/Internet relay chat). Electronic Mail
Electronic mail (“e-mail”) is an electronic message sent by or to a person in correspondence with another person having Internet mail access. The school district may or may not establish pupil email accounts. In the event the district provides email accounts, all messages sent and received on the school district computer networks/computers must have an educational purpose and are subject to review. Messages received by a district-provided email account are retained on the system until deleted by the pupil or for a period of time determined by the district. A canceled account will not retain its emails.
Pupils are expected to remove old messages within fifteen days or school district personnel may remove such messages. School district personnel may inspect the contents of e-mails sent by a pupil to an addressee, or disclose such contents to other than the sender or a recipient when required to do so by the policy, regulation or other laws and regulations of the State and Federal governments. The Board reserves the right to cooperate fully with local, State, or Federal officials in any investigation concerning or relating to any e-mail transmitted or any other information on the school district computer networks/computers.
JANUARY 28, 2019 ATTACHMENT A RIDGEWOOD REGULATION BOARD OF EDUCATION PROGRAM R 2361/page 9 of 11 Acceptable Use of Computer Networks/ Computers/ Personal Electronic Devices (PEDs) and Resources Disk Usage
The district reserves the right to establish maximum storage space a pupil receives on the school district’s system. A pupil who exceeds his/her quota of storage space will be advised to delete files to return to compliance with the predetermined amount of storage space. A pupil who remains in noncompliance of the storage space allotment after seven school days of notification may have their files removed from the school district’s system.
Security
Security on any computer system is a high priority, especially when the system involves many users. If a pupil identifies a security problem on the computer networks/computer, the pupil must notify the appropriate school district staff member the pupil should not inform other individuals of a security problem. Passwords provided to pupils by the district for access to the district’s computer networks/computers and PEDs or developed by the pupil for access to an Internet site should not be easily guessable by others or shared with other pupils. Attempts to log in to the system using either another pupil’s or person’s account may result in termination of the account or access.
A pupil should immediately notify the Principal or designee if a password or pin number is lost or stolen, or if they have reason to believe that someone has obtained unauthorized access to their accounts. Any pupil identified as a security risk will have limitations placed on usage of the computer networks/computers and PEDs or may be terminated as a user and be subject to other disciplinary action.
Vandalism
Vandalism to any school district owned computer networks/computers and PEDs may result in cancellation of system privileges and other disciplinary measures in compliance with the district's discipline code. Vandalism is defined as any malicious attempt to harm or destroy data of another user, the system, or any of the agencies or other computer networks/computers and PEDs that are connected to the Internet backbone or of doing intentional damage to hardware or software on the system. This includes, but is not limited to, the uploading or creation of computer viruses. In the event vandalism results in a financial loss to the district, restitution by the offender may be required.

The printing facilities of the computer network/computers and PEDs should be used judiciously. Unauthorized printing for other than educational purposes is prohibited.
Internet Sites and the World Wide Web
Designated school district personnel may establish an Internet site(s) on the World Wide Web or other Internet locations. Such sites shall be administered and supervised by the designated school district personnel who shall ensure the content of the site complies with Federal, State and local laws and regulations as well as Board policies and regulations.
Violations
Violations of the Acceptable Use of Computer Networks/Computers and PEDs and Resources Policy and Regulation may result in a loss of access as well as other disciplinary or legal action. Disciplinary action shall be taken as indicated in Policy and/or Regulation 2361 Acceptable Use of Computer Networks/Computers/PEDs and Resources, 5600 Pupil Discipline/Code of Conduct, 5610 Suspension and 5620 Expulsion as well as possible legal action and reports to the legal authorities and entities.
