📢 Important Update for Parents! 📢 Boise City Public School District has updated its policy on electronic communications with students, effective July 22, 2024, to ensure a safe and professional digital environment. Key Points of the New Policy: Staff must maintain proper decorum online. No improper fraternization with students via digital communication. No listing of current students as "friends" on networking sites (with family exceptions). All e-contacts with students should be through school-approved platforms like Remind, Google Education Suite, school e-mail, and other approved LMS. Communication Protocol: Teachers should use school-approved platforms for communication with students. Parents or guardians should be included in direct communications with students unless it’s on a school-approved platform and related to academics. In emergencies, teachers can communicate directly with students but must notify parents or guardians afterward. The district will periodically search for inappropriate online content by staff. Any discovered misconduct will be addressed promptly, and employees may face penalties, including termination. Why These Changes? This new policy, in line with Oklahoma HB3958, provides better oversight and accountability, protecting both teachers and students. Remind, Google Education Suite, and other approved platforms ensure secure and reliable communication channels. What Do Parents Need to Do? Download Remind: Available on the App Store or Google Play (optional). Remind messages can also come via text or email. To unblock Remind, text any school or class code to 81010. Our school codes are: High School: @boisecityh Elementary: @boisecitye Thank you for helping us maintain a safe and effective learning environment! Stay informed and connected! 📲✨
