Technology Acceptable Use Policy

Internet access will be available to qualifying students. These services include access to electronic resources from UtahLink, Utah Educational Network (UEN), and the Washington County School District. All laws and regulations under these providers are in force for all users. These resources provide a wealth of educational material. Access to the internet provides sites that are inappropriate for education; therefore, due to potential problems associated with internet, parents should be actively involved in the decision to allow their children internet access at school.

Internet use is a privilege, not a right. School computers and online computer services are intended for educational use only. The Washington County School District has a Technology Acceptable Use Policy which states that students who violate the terms of the policy will immediately lose access and may be further restricted from using the internet. DHS students are expected to practice Respect, Responsibility, Integrity with regards to internet use.
