Parent Notification Regarding the Use of Video Conferencing

    Hello Fullerton School District Parents,

    Many of our teachers will be utilizing video conferencing software to communicate with students for Distance Learning. Parents may opt out of having your students participate in video conferencing if you do not want them to participate. By allowing your students to log in, you are providing consent for this form of communication and recording for instructional purposes. If a teacher feels that something being covered in the video conference is important for the whole class to hear, they will record the conference and post it for students to access later. Teachers may record any video conference. Teachers all have email addresses and can answer questions through email if your student has questions about assignments and does not want to participate in a video conference.

    Video conferences are just like the classroom in that all classroom behavioral expectations are still expected. Students who use inappropriate language, share inappropriate images, or in any way behave inappropriately on a video conference will be subject to appropriate discipline. Students may not record or take pictures of video conferences without teacher or principal permission just like in the classroom based on our acceptable use policies.

    Video conferences are also occurring in multiple student homes, so there is no expectation of privacy. Siblings and other family members may be listening or viewing the video conferences. It is the parents’ responsibility to monitor their student’s use of the Internet and of school devices especially when students are involved in classroom discussions or video conferences.
