Policy 3563 - Student-Tracking Safety Devices

Student-Tracking Safety Devices

Because of student privacy concerns, the Charter School requires listen-in technology to be disabled while any student tracking device is at school, on School-provided transportation, and at school events. The Charter School prohibits unauthorized audio or visual recordings or transmission of audio or images of other students.

A parent/guardian shall obtain approval from the Executive Director or his or her designee before operating a student-tracking safety device or other electronic device with recording or listen-in capability, such as AngelSense, at school or at a school-sponsored event. Any parent/guardian receiving permission to use an electronic device with listen-in capability may be requested to enter into a user agreement with the School to define the scope and limits of such use.
