Dear Parent/Guardian:

The Fair Lawn Public Schools has a district wide computer network which provides access to a wide range of tools such as educational software, Microsoft Office, as well as access to the Internet. The Internet is an educational tool which can provide access to various data sources, including government publications and databases, museums and art galleries, magazines and newspapers and links to the global community.

Once a student has access to the school computer network, he or she also has access to the Internet. The district technology curriculum includes instruction in the appropriate and safe use, selection, and evaluation of information. A web security filtering system is used to promote the safe use of the Internet and reduce the risk of contact with unacceptable sites, but no system is guaranteed to be foolproof.

There are a variety of technology initiatives supported by the Fair Lawn school district. Your child may benefit from participation in some or all of the programs listed below. Please review the guidelines and indicate your permission for your child’s participation for each of the following (please check ONLY one statement in each section):
