SCHOOL SYSTEM WEBSITE/ONLINE PRESENCE/ WEB PAGES

Boothbay-Boothbay Harbor CSD maintains an official Website/Online Presence to provide general information about our school system, as well as information about educational programs, extracurricular activities, school events, and student and staff achievements. This Website/Online Presence is intended to support the educational mission of the schools, to enhance the curriculum and learning opportunities for students and staff, and to provide valuable information to the larger community about our schools. The Website/Online Presence does not create, nor is it intended to create, a public or limited public forum.

The Board recognizes that the schools must establish reasonable controls to protect the privacy of students and staff, to ensure that the Website/Online Presence is in compliance with applicable laws, and to ensure that it meets the highest educational and quality standards. The Superintendent shall be responsible for overseeing the implementation of this policy and the accompanying guidelines, and for advising the Board of the need for any future amendments or revisions to the policy or guidelines. The Superintendent may develop additional administrative procedures and/or rules governing the day-to-day management and operations of Boothbay ­ Boothbay Harbor CSD Website/Online Presence, consistent with the Board's policy and guidelines. The Superintendent may delegate specific responsibilities to the Technology Coordinator, District Webmaster, or other employee as he/she deems appropriate.
