YouTube is bad, right?
Remember when everyone used to think that YouTube was bad? I know several schools and parishes that we keep in contact with block youtube.com on their computers.
Google (who now owns YouTube) has made huge advancements in their efforts to identify inappropriate material. Our teachers and students use YouTube in class to access some of the great content that is out there. (100 best YouTube videos for Teachers)
After all it can't be all bad:
Protecting family email addresses
I found an article on Freep.com that talks about Bloomfield Hills Public Schools struggle with keeping family email addresses private. (article here)
While St. Regis doesn't have to acknowledge Freedom of Information requests like a Public School district might, the article still raises some issues that are worth thinking about. Although no "formal" policy exists, I can say that St. Regis doesn't release any information obtained by parishoners or school families unless permission is granted by the family.
