Internet and Google Apps for Education Access

STUDENT ACCESS TO GOOGLE APPS OPT-OUT FORM

Our mission is to maximize learning for every student by providing an educational environment in which students thrive and become innovative, creative, collaborative and well prepared for college, career and global citizenship.

Dry Creek Joint Elementary School District (DCJESD) will be utilizing Google Apps for Education as a critical component of our educational delivery and to assist in collaborative sharing of resources by teachers and students. These accounts will be used for school related projects, but may also be used outside of school by students. The mastery of effective and proper email communications by students is included in the National Technology Standards, in addition to allowing access to the wealth of collaborative tools available to students and teachers once these accounts are assigned. All students will be assigned a Google Apps account which will provide access to email and site content. The rules governing proper electronic communications by students are included in the Technology Acceptable Use Policy that is part of the student handbook available on each school’s website. This account is housed on Google servers, thereby giving your student access to Google Drive (word processor, spreadsheet, drawing, and presentation software), email, calendar, plus additional services on school and home computers. This will allow your student to collaborate with teachers and other students.

Official Email Address: Students will be assigned a unique student email account. This account will be considered the student's official school email address until such time as the student is no longer enrolled in DCJESD.

Conduct: Students are responsible for good behavior just as they are in a traditional school building. Student accounts may not be used in the following ways: Unlawful activities; using obscene, profane, threatening, or disrespectful language; commercial purposes; personal financial gain; false identity in email communications; misrepresentation of the DCJESD; interference with DCJESD technology operations. Bullying will not be tolerated and the privacy of others should be respected at all times.

Access Restriction: Access to and use of Google Apps for Education is considered a privilege accorded at the discretion of DCJESD. The District maintains the right to immediately withdraw the access and use of the account when there is reason to believe that violations of law or School Board policies have occurred. In such cases, the alleged violation will be referred to the Principal or designee for further investigation and application of necessary consequences.

Security: The DCJESD cannot and does not guarantee the security of electronic files located on Google systems. Although Google does have a powerful content filter in place, the District cannot assure that users will not be exposed to noneducational material.

Privacy: The District reserves the right to access and review content in the Google Apps for Education system at any time. The District complies with all state and federal privacy laws. As with any educational endeavor, we feel that a strong partnership with families is essential to a successful experience.

If you DO NOT want your child to have access to a Google Apps for Education account for the current school year. Please submit a written request to opt your student out and submit it to your child’s teacher.

Make sure to include the following in your request:

• I DO NOT want my child to be allowed access to a Google Apps for Education account through DCJESD.
• School Year
• Name of Student (please print): (Last) (First)
• Name of School
• Student Grade
• Parent/Guardian Signature and Date

Student Acceptable Use Agreement

Reasons for this Policy

A commitment to an exemplary student education in the 21st Century is at the core of Dry Creek Joint Elementary School District’s various technology initiatives. While technology resources can enhance the students’ learning and education when used for appropriate school purposes, it can distract and disrupt the process when it is abused.  This Instructional Acceptable Use Policy (ITAUP) establishes the expectations to ensure District Technology (as defined below) is a valuable resource to students, rather than a hindrance to learning both on and off campus.

The access, use, and possession of District Technology is a privilege permitted at District’s discretion and is subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth in applicable Board policies (e.g. Board Policy 6163.4) and this AUP.  Network etiquette is explained below, which students are expected to follow.  District reserves the right to suspend access to District Technology at any time, without notice, for any reason.

The purpose of this AUP is to ensure a safe and appropriate environment for all students.  This AUP notifies parents and students about the acceptable ways in which District Technology may be used; it also notifies parents and students about the unacceptable use of District Technology.

Each student who is authorized to use District Technology, and his/her parent/guardian shall acknowledge during student data confirmation the AUP, below, as an indication that they have read, understood and agree to comply with the terms of this AUP.

Definitions

District Technology:  The term “District Technology” shall collectively refer and relate to all District Devices (as defined below); District computer networks including servers and wireless computer networking technology (Wi-Fi); District User Accounts, (as defined below); District electronic devices such as USB drives, cameras, wireless access points (routers), District data networks, operating systems, storage, e-mail, systems, web applications, or mobile applications.

User Accounts:  The term “User Account” shall refer and relate to a student’s individual account on the District network server used to store student’s computer username, password, and other information.

Device:  The term “Device” or “Devices” is a subset of District Technology and shall specifically refer to a District-owned tablet, laptop or Chromebook to which the student has been given access and/or loaned to the student for educational purposes including but not limited to distance learning.

District will attempt to tailor any disciplinary action to meet the specific concerns related to each violation.

UNIFORM COMPLAINTS - COURSEWORK REQUIREMENTS FOR FOSTER YOUTH, HOMELESS STUDENTS, FORMER JUVENILE COURT STUDENTS, MIGRATORY AND NEWLY ARRIVED IMMIGRANT STUDENTS PARTICIPATING IN A “NEWCOMER PROGRAM,” AND STUDENTS LIVING IN ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY HOUSEHOLDS –

The following rights apply to foster youth, homeless students, former juvenile court students, migratory and newly arrived immigrant students participating in a “newcomer program”1 , and students living in the households of parents/guardians who are active duty members of the military:

(1) The District shall accept coursework satisfactorily completed while attending another public school, a juvenile court school, or a nonpublic, nonsectarian school or agency, even if the student did not complete the entire course; and must issue full or partial credit for the coursework completed. For students living in active duty military households, “public schools” include schools operated by the United States Department of Defense. (Ed. Code § 51225.2(b)); [also applies to migratory and newly arrived immigrant students in newcomer programs]

(2) Students may not be required to retake a course satisfactorily completed elsewhere. If the student did not complete the entire course, the school district may not require that the student retake the portion already completed, unless the school district, in consultation with the holder of the student’s educational rights, finds that the student is reasonably able to complete the requirements in time to graduate from high school. When partial credit is awarded in a particular course, the student must be enrolled in the same or equivalent course in order to continue and complete the entire course (Ed. Code § 51225.2(b) and (d)); [also applies to migratory and newly arrived immigrant students in newcomer programs]

Non-Compliance Complaints

Complaints of non-compliance may be filed with the District under the District's Uniform Complaint Procedures. A complainant not satisfied with the District's decision may appeal to the California Department of Education (CDE) and receive a written decision regarding the appeal within 60 days of the CDE’s receipt of the appeal. (Ed. Code §§ 51225.1(m) and 51225.2(f).)

Oral Health Assessment (Kindergarten and First Grade)

Any pupil, while enrolled in kindergarten in a public school or while enrolled in first grade if the pupil was not previously enrolled in kindergarten, unless excused, must present proof no later than May 31 of the school year of having received an oral assessment by a licensed dentist or other licensed or registered dental health professional.  While “kindergarten” includes both transitional kindergarten and kindergarten, the required proof of a pupil’s oral health assessment upon first enrollment, must only be presented once during the two-year kindergarten program. The assessment must be performed no earlier than 12 months prior to initial enrollment of the pupil. Ed. Code § 49452.8 

To make sure your child is ready for school, California law requires that children have a dental assessment by May 31 in either kindergarten or first grade, whichever is their first year in public school.

Universal School Meals Eligibility Forms 

Dear Dry Creek Families,

Welcome to the new school year! Whether you are returning to the Dry Creek Joint Elementary School District or you and your student are brand new to our District, we are honored by your decision to join our school community. As we move into another school year, Dry Creek continues to build on its long-standing history and solid reputation for delivering high-quality education in award-winning schools. 

Preparing for the first day of school requires much work and coordination. Our teachers prepare lesson plans, decorate their classrooms for students, and find creative ways to make learning spaces fun and engaging. Our district staff also works hard to update student records and ensure supplies, including technology equipment, are in place. 

Collaboration with parents is vital in supporting students' educational growth, and we are committed to continuing to build a strong partnership with families. We encourage all parents and guardians to connect with their child’s teacher to better understand what their student is learning in class. Parents and guardians can actively engage in their child’s education and provide valuable support at home by staying informed about the curriculum. We also invite families to get involved in school activities and initiatives, as this strengthens the connection between home and school and enhances the overall educational experience for each student. Together, we can make a lasting impact on their academic success.

I am excited for the year ahead. Thank you again for entrusting us with your child’s education. It is truly an honor to serve as your Superintendent.

Mr. Cliff De Graw
Superintendent
