Acceptable Use Policy
(AUP)
What Is an AUP?
written guidelines
that define the terms and conditions
for Internet use at school
and/or while using district-provided
equipment and services.
Who must sign an AUP?
Anyone using district equipment and/or
services to access the Internet must have
a signed AUP on file.
This form was part of the packet of
materials filled out by families at the
beginning of the school year.
New students fill this out when enrolling.
Components of Our AUP
The district AUP includes components that
explain:
why the Internet is used for instruction,
what is available,
guidelines for appropriate use,
consequences for inappropriate use,
and rights and responsibilities of both
users and the district.
We believe:
Computers and the internet are powerful
tools in education.
Students should be taught the proper use
of computer and internet resources.
Computer and internet use are a privilege.
Description of Access
Students have access to computer labs
through their classroom teachers.
District online resources and other
appropriate educational resources are to
be used to complete school work.
Description of Access, cont.
Students who access restricted or
inappropriate sites will lose computer
