Innovative example of an Acceptable Use Computer Policy from a private K12 school

May 28th, 2011

CHS Computer and Internet Guidelines and Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)

So here's the deal. The online Metaverse contains a broad spectrum of participants and we don't want to be left out. However, with the possibility of unparalleled promise comes potential peril for those who tread the superhighway carelessly. So, in a cooperative and responsible spirit, here are some Good Netizenship Guidelines to ensure our 21st Century students benefit from cutting edge technology training…

What to do…
  • Play nice (you're not alone)
  • Contribute your own creations (avoid plagiarism which is unethical)
  • Enjoy discovering new ideas that can be shared with everyone (if others must be excluded, it's probably not appropriate)
What NOT to do
  • Don't take what isn't yours (illegal downloading is a crime)
  • Remember the children (post and present what is appropriate for all)
  • Don't vent frustrations (you can't delete what has been posted on the internet)
  • Don't be creepy (Remember the Golden Rule)
  • Don't use your account for non-school purposes
Finally, please report immediately, any problems, concerns, or questionable issues to staff.
