ONLINE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCE TERMS
To meet today’s educational needs, South Shore Charter Public School (SSCPS) uses many online educational resources. Such resources include websites and services that are “in the cloud”; and they may include other pieces of technology as well.
To meet Federal, State and/or local laws, SSCPS needs to disclose any websites that students will need to register or use their own accounts. All websites are reviewed to meet security standards. There are three main websites that SSCPS uses, each detailed below. After these three websites is an evolving list of sites that may be used as well. As our teachers and staff make use of additional websites, those websites will be added. Please refer to our Acceptable Use Policies in the Student Handbook for additional information.
