The Anchorage School District Internet Policy Committee was established in April 1998. The committee has the responsibility to recommend procedures and guidelines for Internet use by students, staff, and community members in the district. Committee membership includes representation from Elementary Principals, Elementary Librarians, Public Affairs, Secondary Technology Coordinators, Information Technology, and Instructional Technology.
Every Internet site visited has the capability of identifying the user as a representative of ASD. All activity on the Internet must be governed by discretion and good judgment.
