Web Filtering
In 2000, Congress enacted the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) to address concerns about access to offensive content over the Internet on school and library computers. Santa Fe Trail Internet traffic is filtered by technology which goes above and beyond CIPA requirements to ensure students are protected from accessing such content.
Internet traffic is filtered in order to protect students and the district. Using CIPA compliant equipment allows Santa Fe Trail to have greater control over the type of content being accessed by students and staff members. This control allows the Internet to be used more freely for educational purposes.
Though USD 434 has content filtering in place, it may still be possible for students to inadvertently access content deemed inappropriate. Students should notify a teacher immediately should they access such content so our web filters may be updated.
