Internet Policies and Procedures
Using the Internet is a privilege. Misusing it will result in your not
being allowed to access the Internet using library computers. The Internet
is a vast network of interlinked computers containing large amounts of
information on myriad subjects. Some of these subjects are based on adult
content and should not be accessed. Students at Molina are placed on the
honor system about following the acceptable use policy.
Molina Media Center
Acceptable Use of Computer and Networks Policy
Internet usage in the Media Center during the school day must
be
related directly to educational topics. However, you may use the Internet
before and after school to look for items of interest to you which are not
in defiance of the acceptable use policy.
Obscene, questionable, or derogatory Internet sites must not
be
visited.
Visiting chat rooms and ordering online are not permitted.
You may
check your email before or after school ONLY.
Materials directly related to research may be printed free of
cost
for the first ten pages and at a cost of 10¢ for additional pages. Materials
