Summary

The Twin Lakes School Library Media program is concerned with students' right to privacy and digital security.  In order to increase Lakewood School's active participation in securing student data, as well as contribute to state-wide efforts to protect student data, the Library Team will begin the process of conducting a privacy audit, and will also continue registering Student Data Privacy Agreements with the Wisconsin Student Privacy Alliance. Participation in these practices is encouraged by the WI DPI School Library network of School Library Media Specialists, including DPI's School Library Media Education Consultant.
