  1. Mr. Sherpinsky Computer Use Council Rock School District

  2. Internet Usage • Children's Internet Privacy Act (CIPA) • Requires schools to provide an internet filter for all school district computers. • Whether these computers are operated by staff or students, the filter operates to keep out information that is deemed "inappropriate". 

  3. Practical Operations • Filter  generates a list of inappropriate searches, sites, names, and IP addresses. • Beware!!! Searching in Google otherwise - comes back in this report when it triggers a word that is considered "inappropriate" by the filter software.

  4. Practical Operations • These words are mostly characterized as relating to weapons, drugs/alcohol, suicide, pornography, obscenity, and abuse. • Every hour a filter report comes out to our IT department and is forwarded to the Principal.

  5. Practical Operations • A Suspicious Search string would look like this on the report: IP Address UserName Host Name Site Query String Time 10.30.4.228 crsd\1000031crsd\crn-w355 Google Heroin 1/25/11 10:32AM

  6. Why Does it Matter? • A query appeared in December at an elementary school that read "Why do parents abuse their children". • Alone, that string may be explainable as a search for a report or assignment - but it could be a red flag to an already concerning situation with a child.

  7. How Do You Get Access? • Highlights: • * Student login names are their eSchool ids. • * H drives are named Last Name + eSchool id. • * Student passwords are the word USAgold46
