RESTRICTIONS FOR INTERNET USE AT SINALOA

Before you get on the Internet at Sinaloa, it is expected that…

* you have a specific purpose for going there.
* your classroom teacher is present.
* you are not going to enter a chat room.
* you are not sending or receiving email.
* you are not going to enter contests, make purchases, or access bulletin boards for personal reasons.
* your parent’s signature is on file in the school office as having read the district’s policy on “Educational Use of the Internet.”

ALWAYS BE SAFE ON THE INTERNET-DON’T BE A VICTIM!

1. Never give out personal information such as your name, address, telephone number, parents’ work address or telephone number, the name or location of the school, etc. without getting permission from a trusted adult first.
2. If you come across information or language that makes you fell uncomfortable, don’t respond! Log off and tell a trusted adult.
3. Never, ever agree to get together with someone you “meet” online without first checking with your parents. If your parents agree to the meeting, be sure it is in a public place and your mother, father or guardian is with you.
4. Never send your picture or anything else to anyone without checking with your parents first.
5. Only accept email messages from people you know. If you don’t know the sender, don’t open the file no matter how interesting it may look. Email is not a private way to communicate. Don’t say or do anything you wouldn’t say or do in a public place.
6. Check website addresses carefully to see if they’re real. Tell your parents and teachers where you’re going and what you’re doing.
7. Remember that everything you read online may not be true. Any offer that sounds too good to be true probably is. Run from offers that involve going to a meeting or having someone over.
