Perry County School System Faculty and Staff Internet/Computer Acceptable Use Policy:
The Perry County Board of Education offers employees of the Perry County School System, who need it, access to the Internet and electronic mail (e-mail) as a business tool.
Access to e-mail and the Internet will enable employees to explore thousands of libraries, databases, and bulletin boards while exchanging messages with Internet users throughout the world. Although there is some degree of risk in offering Internet access, we believe that benefits to the school system exceed any disadvantages.
Internet and E-mail Policy:
The network is provided for authorized employees to conduct research and communicate with others. Access to network services is given to employees who agree to act in a considerate and responsible manner. Internet access and e-mail accounts are issued only after the employee has signed the Employee Internet Use Agreement. Access can be revoked at any time if network security or protocol is compromised.
The Internet will be used exclusively to access business-related links and downloads between the hours of 7:15 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. on school system workdays or while working for the school system if work hours differ from regular business hours or days. While use outside of normal business hours can include non-business related links, no inappropriate material that could be construed as obscene or otherwise offensive will be accessed.
All Internet accessible machines should run virus protection software at all times. This should include a boot virus check, background protection, and hard disk detection. Business related files that are downloaded should be checked for viruses prior to being executed, uncompressed, or moved.
Inappropriate Uses and Practices
The following practices are considered unacceptable, and may be subject to disciplinary action including written warnings, revocation of access privileges, and/or up to and including termination.
**The Board reserves the right to report any illegal activities to appropriate authorities.
