CCSD Social Network Rules of Engagement
All comments posted on this page are at the discretion of the page administrators. Naming specific
employees or students in a negative way will not be allowed. The page administrators will review all postings
to make sure they do not violate the Districtโs Acceptable Use Guidelines regarding Internet access and
practices, as well as Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) provisions. People making comments
on the page are requested to show respect for their fellow users by ensuring the discussion remains civil,
especially since Facebook allows individuals 13 and over to join. Comments are also subject to Facebookโs
Terms of Use and Code of Conduct. Remember that your name and photo will be seen next to your
comment, visible to anyone who visits the page. We welcome your thoughts and comments and look forward
to what you have to say. Contain abusive, discriminatory or inappropriate language or statements. This includes remarks that
contain obscenities or are sexually explicit.
2. Easily identify students and/or staff in defamatory, abusive, or generally negative terms. If you
disagree with the content, we ask that you refrain from personal attacks or being disrespectful of
others.
3. Do not show proper consideration for othersโ privacy or are considered likely to offend or provoke
others โ i.e., do not pick fights or goad others into inflammatory debates. Malicious intent and or
participation not in the spirit of civil conversation will be excluded.
4. We will exclude comments not related to the subject of the conversation. If you have
a question to ask on a different topic, please contact us via email. It is always best to start with the
person most involved with your topic (classroom teacher, building principal, etc.).
5. Are spam โ i.e., repeatedly posting the same comment or comments that are simply
advertising/promoting a service or product.
6. Break the law or encourage others to do so. This includes respecting copyright and fair use laws. If
you are talking about somebody elseโs work, reference this or the person, and where possible include
a link. The page administrators reserve the right to not post or remove any comments at any time, for any reason. Repeat offenders will be blocked from posting. If you have feedback or would like to report an inappropriate
comment for us to review, send an email to [email protected]
All statements and viewpoints expressed in the comments are strictly those of the commenter alone, and do
not constitute an official position of the Cherokee County School District unless they are posted by the
original author (who is an authorized representative of the District) or by a subject matter expert responding
on behalf of the District.
