Device Repair
All damages will be assessed by the District Technology Office. If the Chromebook is damaged, it will be repaired by the District Technology Office and sent back. A loaner Chromebook will be issued to the student while the original is being fixed. The general time frame for repairs varies but most repairs are completed in less then one week.. A repair form will be sent to parents once the Chromebook is fixed with a list of fees if they apply.
Filtering and Monitoring
Spooner Area School District utilizes an internet content filter that is in compliance with the federally mandated Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA). All district owned devices are filtered both on network and off. Although the district has very strict filter settings at all grade levels, no filter can block 100% of inappropriate content. The presence of filters or blocks do not relieve the students and/or parent/guardian responsibility of any board policies or relieve the parent/guardian of their responsibility for supervising the student’s use outside of school.
