What is Acceptable Use?

To prepare students for an increasingly technological society, the district has made an investment in the use of district-owned technology resources for instructional purposes; specific resources may be issued individually to students. Use of these technological resources, which include the district’s network systems and use of district equipment, is restricted to approved purposes only. Students and parents will be asked to sign a user agreement when completing online registration regarding use of these district resources. Violations of the user agreement may result in withdrawal of privileges and other disciplinary action.

How does Acceptable Use affect my student?

In accordance with the Children’s Internet Protection Act, Duncanville ISD educates staff and students regarding appropriate online behavior to ensure Internet safety, including use of email and online resources, and has deployed filtering technology and protection measures to restrict access to inappropriate content. With this in mind, it is a privilege for DISD students to utilize the District’s technology resource system and Internet.

Students are granted access to available electronic services. If a parent/guardian chooses not to grant permission for technology access, the student will not be permitted to participate the use of the District’s technology resource system. Use of the system may include, but not limited to, wireless access, computer workstations, servers, computer workstations, peripherals, applications, databases, online resources, Internet access, electronic mail, digitized information, telecommunication devices, and any other technology designated for use by students, including all new technologies as they become available.
