District News Section of the Meyerholz Bulldog, 18 Sep, 2008)
The Cupertino Union School
District currently allows parents to capture audio recordings, images,
and/or video footage of their children in the classroom and at school
events. The district believes that allowing this access is an important
part of involving parents in the education of their children. While the
district understands the desire for parents to share this information with
others, we request that all parents be respectful of the privacy of other
families and the district’s policies for protecting student identity.
Therefore,
any audio recordings,
images, and/or video footage of students obtained during school hours or
at any other school related activity should be used only for your private
viewing and not be posted or published online. This guideline is
consistent with the school district’s policies and we would appreciate
your cooperation.
As new technology continues to emerge, the district is
balancing the use of innovative technology at the school site with the
protection of the identity of our students. |
