Longview Independent School District
Student Acceptable Use of the Electronic Communications System
And Parent/Guardian Request for Restriction Form (Opt-Out)
2020-2021

All training in the use of the District’s system will emphasize its ethical use, online safety, appropriate online behavior including interaction on social network websites and chat rooms, and cyber bullying awareness and response. However, it is possible that your child may come across some material you might find objectionable. While the District will take reasonable steps to preclude access to such material through electronic filtering and classroom management, it is not possible for the District to guarantee that it can completely prevent such access.
