Community Consolidated School District 146 Web Page
Guidelines
Internet access in Community Consolidated
School District 146 schools provides an opportunity for
staff and students
to contribute to the District's presence on the World Wide
Web. The goal of the District's web site is to provide
information to the community and the world about our District,
its curriculum, instruction and activities. Authors of
web pages on the District web site need to be familiar
with and adhere to the Acceptable Use policy of the District
and to the following web page publishing guidelines:
Subject Matter:
- Web pages published on
the district web site must relate to curriculum, instruction,
school activities and class
projects.
- Staff members are encouraged to develop classroom
or home pages where classroom activities can be displayed,
but individual
students are not allowed to publish web pages.
- Personal
home pages are not allowed on the District web site.
- All copyright laws must be observed. The use of copyrighted
material without permission is prohibited.
Responsibilities
of Web Page Authors:
- All web pages must be approved
by a principal or administrator prior to publication.
- The systems administrator and/or appropriate designees
must be made aware of the posting of web pages
subsequent to principal
or administrator approval. This latter step
is necessary to insure that all pages are linked
and posted properly.
- Each staff member who authors a web page will be
given a password to allow posting to that page.
This password
must
be a unique password and must be kept confidential.
- Web
authors are responsible for keeping pages current, obtaining
principal review prior to
posting and
contacting the system's
administrator or designee when new pages are
posted.
Student and Staff Safeguards:
- Credit given
to products published on the web can include a student's
first name only.
In this way,
students
can receive recognition without compromising
privacy.
- All materials credited as being
developed by students of District 146 for publication
on
the District
Web site must
be accompanied by written permission
from a legal guardian. This signed permission,
which
must be
kept on file,
must be obtained for each publication
(photos or text) on
the web.
- Names of District staff members
(i.e. Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Doe) can be included
on a web
page as a part
of a roster
or class
identifier (i.e. Mrs. Doe's class).
Full names of staff members can be included
on a District
web page
as part
of a legal
public document. Other than these instances,
all identifiable references or credits
given to other
persons on any
pages published on the District Web
Site must be accompanied by permission.
- Other than first
name for students, and the above guidelines for staff,
no identifying
information
(i.e. last names,
home addresses, names of family members,
personal phone numbers)
is allowed to be posted on the District
146
web site.
- Photographs published on
the District 146 web site must contain a notice
prohibiting copying
of any
photographs contained
on District 146's web site.
- District
146 does not allow the publication of individual student
photos on its
web site. Class
or group pictures
are allowed as long as the photographs
do not note individual names of students
and
where
they are
located in the picture.
Class pictures should include at
least three or more students.
Photos of students must not include
names.
- Staff pictures, home addresses,
phone numbers or e-mail addresses of staff
cannot be posted
without
permission
of staff members.
- The contact person
for any project posted on the web must be a certified
District
146 staff
member.
Technical Guidelines: All
web pages must include links for ease of navigation, as follows:
- Each page of a staff web section
must link back to that
staff member's home
page.
- The home page of
a staff section of the District Web
must link
back to
the main
school page.
- Each main
school page must link back to the
District
school homepage.
