GoGuardian’s web-based services operate on our school’s managed G Suite for Education Chrome accounts (i.e., when a student is logged into Chrome or a Chromebook with his/her school email address).
What are the school’s responsibilities?
Pine City Public Schools selected GoGuardian services to help our students stay safer and more scholarly online. We will work with students during class time to help teach them digital responsibility and safety. Additionally, we will train teachers about how to operate GoGuardian and about our policies and procedures to help protect student privacy.
What are my parental/guardian and child’s responsibilities?
We ask that students uses their school-managed Google accounts and school-managed devices for educational purposes within the boundaries of Pine City Public School’s Internet, Computer and Equipment Usage Policy (#524), Bullying Prohibition Policy (#514), Harassment and Violence (#413), student handbook, and the District Technology Agreement.
When a student is off campus, parents are responsible for supervising internet access and usage. We encourage you to discuss rules for appropriate internet usage with your child, and reinforce lessons of digital citizenship and safety with him or her. We also highly encourage you to report any potential cyberbullying or other sensitive issues to us.
