Technology tools such as computers, the Internet, digital cameras, and video
production equipment offer exciting learning opportunities for East Metro
Integration District 6067 students. They also raise issues concerning
appropriate student use of these tools. In order to assure that students use
technology in a safe and meaningful way, we require that ALL East
Metro Integration District 6067 technology users follow these guidelines.
Student computer accounts will not be activated until this form has been
signed and returned to each student’s teacher.

learning.

and/or appropriate legal action may be taken.

As the parent or guardian of this student, I have read the EMID’s policy and
guidelines relating to safety and acceptable use of the District technology.
I understand that the technology tools are designed for educational
purposes. EMID has taken precautions to eliminate controversial material;
however, I also recognize that it is impossible for EMID to restrict access
to all controversial materials and I will not hold EMID or its employees or
agents responsible for materials acquired on the Internet. Further, I accept
full responsibility for supervision if and when my child’s use is not in a
school setting. I hereby give permission to activate a computer account for
my child.
