I certify that I have read the rules above and discussed them with my child. I understand that access to the district’s technology resources is for educational purposes and that my child has agreed to abide by Colonial School District’s usage rules.

Users must be aware that there are information and services available through the Internet that could be offensive to or unsuitable for certain groups of users. I recognize that it is impossible for Colonial School District to restrict access to all controversial materials, and I will not hold the District, the school, or school personnel responsible for materials acquired or viewed on the network.
