QUEEN OF
PEACE HIGH SCHOOL
ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY FOR TECHNOLOGY
STUDENT NETWORK USE AGREEMENT
The use of computer services at Queen of Peace
High School is a privilege not a right. Students are expected to make responsible,
ethical and appropriate use of computers and information services, such
as the Internet, at all times. Network and computer services include: use
of personal and school computers and peripherals, use of the Internet, use
of e-mail, and use of all associated software. Students should realize that
these services are finite and costly and that such things as time, money
and hardware are wrongfully restricted or appropriated when these services
are abused.
Queen of Peace High School's policies apply to information services in very
particular ways:
- Students may only use their password.
- Students may not reconfigure or tamper with
the network system in any way, nor attempt to access or alter files without
proper authority.
- Students may not unlawfully copy software
or information.
- Students may not use illegal software.
- Students must cite properly all information
that is required from electronic sources and used in their assignments.
- A student is held responsible for all activity
conducted on his/her account or under his/her password.
- Queen of Peace High School holds specific
expectations for students at each grade level for how they use their computer
during official school hours and after school in either the computer lab,
classrooms, Counseling Center or library.
- Game playing is not permitted on any school-owned
computer, server or network system.
Failure to comply with these standards or acceptable use of Queen of Peace
High School's technology will result, in the very least, in suspension or
withdrawal of network privileges.
