Technology is used to support teaching and learning.
Networks, including the Internet, allow people to communicate with others
through the use of technology. It is the policy of the Roselle Park Schools that
all technology used to access the Internet will be used in a responsible, legal,
and ethical manner. Failure to do so will result in the termination of Internet
privileges for the user. Remember, the use of the network is a privilege, not an
entitlement.
Since Internet communication is often public,
students and staff are responsible for behaving appropriately on the network, as
they are in school. The Internet is provided for student and faculty to conduct
research and communicate with others concerning schoolwork.
Individual users of the Internet are responsible for
their own use of the Internet. Use of the Internet must be in support of both
education and research, must be consistent with academic actions of the Roselle
Park schools, and will be under the supervision of Roselle Park School staff.
Use of other organizations’ networks or computing resources must comply with the
rules appropriate for that network. Use of the network for any illegal or
commercial activities is prohibited.
A responsible Internet user will:
- Use language that is considered
appropriate.
- Be polite
- Send information that other users will not find
offensive
Conform with copyright laws - Never reveal personal information
about any user, such as address, telephone number, credit card numbers, social
security number, etc.
- Never tamper with the system
- Never alter, delete, or
destroy any files or data that is not the user’s
A responsible Internet user must be aware
that:
- Use of the Internet is a privilege, not a
right
- E-mail is not guaranteed to be private
- Violation of this policy will
result in the possible loss of Internet privileges, or disciplinary action where
appropriate
- Persons issued an account are responsible for its use at all
times.
Some appropriate uses of
the Internet network are:- Researching classroom projects
- Communicating
with other students and educators throughout the world
- Visiting foreign
countries

Parent or Guardian
As the parent or guardian of this student, I have read the Internet
Acceptable Use Policy. I understand that this access is designed for educational
purposes. Roselle Park School district has taken precautions to eliminate
controversial materials. However, I also realize that with the global nature of
the Internet, it is impossible for Roselle Park to restrict access to all
controversial materials, or even be aware of them, and I will not hold them
responsible for materials acquired on the network. Further, I accept full
responsibility for supervision if and when my child’s use is not in a school
setting. I understand that it is my duty to review this policy, including the
consequences, with my child. I accept the consequences if my child violates the
policy. I hereby give my child permission to use the Internet and certify that
that the information contained on this form is correct.
