DuVal High School is pleased to offer students access to a computer network for access to the Internet. The Internet and World Wide Web have been installed for students and instructors to use for academic purposes only. The uses of information systems are to be consistent with the educational ob;jectives of Prince George's County Schools.
Access to the Internet is a privilege, not a right, and inappropriate use will result in the cancellation of that privilege and/or disciplinary action by school and/or law enforcement officials. We require that students and parents or guardians read and abide by the following rules for acceptable on line behavior. It is DuVal High School's belief that the Internet is a valuable educational tool and that all staff and students will follow this Acceptable Use Policy.
While the Internet can be a tremendous source of information, it also contains material that are illegal, inaccurate, inappropriate, defamatory, or potentially offensive to some people. Staff members will do their best to guide and monitor student use of the Internet, but staff cannot be held liable if a student accidentally or willfully goes to an objectionable site. The school system makes every effort to prevent students from being exposed to objectionable or offensive materials, but it is, ultimately, the responsibility of each individual student to adhere to this acceptable use policy.
DuVal provides the information systems including, but not limited to, hardware, software, communication lines and devices, graphing calculators, terminals, printers, CD-ROM devices, network drives, scanners, and computers to be used for educational purposes. Personal browsing and web based email is not allowed on school computers. These services are provided to improve learning and teaching through research, teacher training, administrative support, collaboration, dissemination of information, and use of materials and resources. Access to networks whether within the building or outside carries with it the responsibility for proper use of those resources and computing facilities. All computer users must be responsible, thoughtful, and conscientious users. The following guidelines are intended to help users understand appropriate use. All access to information systems shall be pre-approved by the principal or his/her designee.
The school may restrict or terminate any user's access, without prior notice, if such action is deemed necessary to maintain computing availability and security for other users of the system. Disciplinary action, including suspension, may also be imposed.
Students are responsible for appropriate behavior on the school's computer network just as they are in a classroom or on school property. General school rules for behavior, as stated in the Student Code of Conduct, apply. It is expected that users will comply with district standards and the specific rules and consequences as outlined below.
Students must show a valid DuVal High School ID Badge while using any computer at school. Should a parent/guardian prefer that a student not have Internet access, student use of the computers is still possible for curricular implementation.
The use of the network is a privilege, not a right, and may be revoked if abused. The user is personally responsible for his/her actions in accessing and utilizing the school's computer resources. Students are advised never to access, keep, or send anything that they would not want their parents or teachers to see. Consequences outlined by the supervising teacher, the Student Code of Conduct, or federal law will be taken if a rule is violated, depending on the circumstance.
The following are expressly prohibited on DuVal High School computers:
