Students are responsible for good behaviour on school computer networks just as they are in a classroom or a school hallway. As communications on the school network are often public in nature, general school rules for behaviour and communications apply. These expectations are outlined below in our General Use Guidelines and on the Winnipeg School Division's Acceptable Use of Technology page. 

Resources to help students understand some of the dangers of the internet as well as tips to help ensure your safety online are available by clicking here.
