Cybersecurity
CCSD believes that a robust educational program demands high quality technological infrastructure and the purposeful integration of instructional tools and resources. Student privacy and maintaining a secure online learning environment are two guiding principles used by the Department of Innovation and Technology when evaluating digital platforms, tools, and supplemental materials. We rely on current federal and state policies that provide guidance to school districts on privacy, confidentiality, and security practices. For additional information related to the relevant laws and resources available to everyone, please see below.

Cellphones
Cell phones are amazing devices but all children need support and guidance related to the safe and healthy use of a personal phone. "Smartphones" provide Internet access either through cellular service or a WiFi connection. Many mobile devices can access the Internet through a WiFi connection even without cellular service. In CCSD, we have Internet filters on our wired and WiFi networks, but students can still access the Internet through unfiltered cellular service on their Internet-capable devices. There are many parental control products available on the market to help parents/guardians monitor and control their child's Internet activity.
See the resources below to help support your student to use their phone wisely.
