Computer Lab Information and Rules

Use of Hillsboro High School computers requires the acceptance of certain rules and regulations.  Several of these rules are in place because of federal law CIPA (Children's Internet Protection Act).  The first requirement is that all users read and agree to guidelines put forth in the Computer Usage Agreement (CUA).  After a signed copy of this is on file with the LMC each school year, students are allowed to set up usernames and passwords.   Passwords are kept confidential and known only to the students.  A copy of these are not kept on file in the LMC.  To access a copy of district policy regarding computer and Internet usage, please view this district web page:  http://www. hillsboro.k12.mo.us/dc/techuse/.  Hillsboro High School discipline code rules also apply to usage.  Students are reminded that computer use is for educational purposes.  Students will sign in on the computer sign in sheet for the computer they will be using or will be asked to leave the lab for the remainder of the period.
