Student Announcements for Tuesday, Feb. 19, 2008

Announcements for Parents:

This is a reminder and an important message for all parents who have students using the Internet. The search engine of choice for LPS is NetTrekker. NetTrekker was purchased for the students in our district because it is considered a "safe" source of information. Every site on NetTrekker has been selected and reviewed by teachers.

Google searching is not appropriate for students for several reasons; one being the availability of questionable information and the other the lack of a student's ability to choose authoritative sites from the numerous hits that the topic may generate. Google is intended for an adult audience.

NetTrekker, along with a variety of other resources, is available for home access, a student simply needs to stop in the media center and ask for the bookmark for "Home Access." This bookmark lists the ideas and passwords for all district library media resources that are available for students in LPS.

Announcements for Students:

"Reminder: Students may use their cell phones as soon as they leave the building after school. If students need to use the phone prior to leaving school, they should ask their 7th period teacher to use their seventh period classroom phone prior to leaving their seventh period class, or, in an emergency, they can come to the office and use the office phone."
