| | | | |
| |Federal programs require that schools have Internet filtering in order to | | |
| |qualify for E-rate discounts. The filtering is configured to block access | | |
| |to graphic depictions of pornography and obscenity, which is also stated in | | |
| |our Policy 2460. | | |
| | | | |
| |The Internet filtering occurs at the points in the network where traffic | | |
| |leaves the private K-12 network and enters the public Internet. | | |
| |This implementation requires no changes to school networks; no filtering | | |
| |software is installed. | | |

| |Netsweeper won the bid in November 2006 for Internet filtering for WV K-12 | | |
| |Schools : | | |
| | | | |
| |The database of web sites is updated daily to keep up with the dynamic | | |
| |nature of the Internet. | | |
| | | | |
| |A procedure is in place for any teacher or student to submit a request that | | |
| |access to a particular web site to be blocked or permitted. | | |
| | | | |
| |Internet filtering alone is not sufficient to ensure that the Internet is | | |
| |used appropriately. Teacher supervision of students and enforcement of | | |
| |Acceptable Internet/Network Use Policies are necessary. | | |
| | | | |
| |Acceptable use policies are required at the state and county level for | | |
| |E-rate eligibility. | | |

| |and Educators is available online at | | |
