Internet Filter

DeSoto ISD uses filtering software to block or filter access to potentially harmful web-based content. While these filters help limit exposure to inappropriate material, they are not foolproof. Students are expected to exercise caution and avoid inappropriate content. Staff members have the authority and responsibility to monitor and adjust students' web access. The District uses services that enable staff to review student internet history, searches, and to control the content accessed during learning activities. Attempts by students to bypass or evade the District’s internet filters are prohibited and may lead to disciplinary action.
