CIPA

Brian's Cippa Notes The federal government uses the "E-rate" program and you only get federal funding if you have internet safety in place. As educators, we need to know requirements
 * **CIPA (The Children's Internet Protection Act)** December 2001
 * security program in place to filter cites that would have explicit information or not educational and to monitor the student's access to these cites
 * to monitor student's access through email, hate cites, violence, prejudice, harmful, or inappropriate
 * schools should also be checking to see the filters are working
 * distribution of personal information:
 * prevents students from being able to hack into other cites (**acceptable-use policy** in schools)
 * policy in place in order to prevent outsiders from hacking into the school's personal information (online grading, student's schedules and personal information - Delaware's eSchoolPlus) ||  ||
