Eagle County Schools wants to support the best use of technology to support teaching and learning. We value the partnership of parents and guardians when learning occurs outside of the school building. As an important reminder, students and adults should be sure to:

• Use respectful behavior and language.

• Stick to appropriate topic discussions.

• Send only appropriate video transmissions.

• Use only appropriate icon, emoji, and avatar submissions.

• Wear school appropriate clothing if attending meetings via video.

• Be honest and use academic integrity by not plagiarizing or copying others’ work

• Not falsify information about oneself or impersonate others online.

When everyone remembers to act kindly, show consideration for others, and treat one another online as they wish to be treated in person, students and adults alike will be able to focus on learning.
