  9. Electronics Policy • If you are using technology in your classroom (i.e. Bring Your Own Technology) please make sure that administration is aware and supportive of your plan. • Classroom management • We will continue to work with Central Administration and respect your desire to change the policy. (BYOT) • The policy is the policy; however, our message has not been consistent to the student body. • Ask yourself: Is the student violating the policy causing a disruption to the safety and well-being of others? • Yes. Address the student and follow protocol. • No. Keep calm and carry on.

  10. FERPA • Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act • A Federal Law that protects the privacy of student educational records. The law applies to all schools that receive funds under an applicable program of the U.S. Department of Education. • When in doubt – don’t give it out! (i.e. IEP data, SAP, etc.) • Refer requests for student academic information to the school office or designated personnel. • Information on a computer should be treated with the same confidentiality as a paper copy. • Do not leave confidential information displayed on an unattended computer. • Cover or put away papers that contain confidential information if you are going to step away from your desk.
