District 1:1 Technology

Conestoga Valley School District provides all students with 1:1 technology for education purposes in line with the District’s Mission. All technology provided is property of the Conestoga Valley School District and any damage to the device, chargers, cases, or other components or loss of any property will incur a fine. Use of district technology is governed by School Board Policy 239 and provided under the Acceptable Use Policy.

Acceptable Internet Use

Use of the Internet shall be limited to educational and instructional purposes related to the curriculum. All persons who access the Internet must conduct themselves in a responsible, ethical, and polite manner while using the network.  Before initially having access to the Internet, students must complete an Internet Utilization Form, which includes parent/guardian approval. If parents/guardians prefer that their children do not have access to the Internet under any circumstances, they should send their request in writing to the building principal on an annual basis.

Cell Phones

Students are only permitted to use cell phones under the direction of a teacher or administrator.  Students should not assume it is their right or privilege to use personal devices, including cell phones, during the school day. Use of a cell phone includes, but is not limited to, communicating with others using the cell phone, texting, taking pictures, video recording, audio recording, or accessing or attempting to access the Internet. The above mentioned use will result in school disciplinary action and, if applicable, may result in police action.

Discipline Options

See classroom-managed code 109.0 “Misuse of Electronic Device/Network – Minor” and office-managed code 211.0 “Misuse of Electronic Device/Network – Major,” in the Code of Student Conduct. Appendix A: Discipline Decision-Making Guide provides details for the application of disciplinary action for these specific infraction codes.
