H.P. Baldwin Internet License

H.P. Baldwin High School nurtures a safe digital learning environment in our schools. We promote the idea of Digital Citizenship; being a responsible, safe and ethical user of digital and internet technologies. This is General Learner Outcome #6: Effective and Ethical User of Technology - The ability to use a variety of technologies effectively and ethically. We also implore students to be safe. Internet safety is being aware of victimizing issues online such as being scammed, disrespected, bullied, harassed, or stalked while on the internet.
