Re: [LM_NET] Looking for Internet Access Permission Forms --a different approach

[Mary Alice Anderson <maryalicea@MAC.COM>]

Hi, 

Here's a different approach and one our district has used for years.   We do not 
have permission forms.   When students enter the district it is assumed that they 
have permission unless the parents complete a form to OPT OUT.  In our 1300 student 
middle school no one has opted out and only one or two students opted out of having 
their photo used in press releases or on the web site.    The opt out approach 
saves a lot of paperwork.  Of course the internet access policy is printed in 
student handbooks, signs are posted etc.
