District 205 utilizes Zoom for Education as the primary web conferencing software and Google Meet as a secondary option for remote teaching. District 205 has carefully reviewed our agreement with both Zoom and Google to ensure that its practices are compliant with FERPA privacy rules, in that it has data encryption and other privacy controls that both protect stored data and prevent disclosure to unauthorized parties. The District is using best practices to promote security and privacy, limiting access to remote lessons to students in the class using protections like private meeting links, passwords, and waiting rooms.
