As part of our efforts to maintain a safe, secure online experience for students, Chandler Unified School District uses a technology tool known as Lightspeed in grades K-12.

Lightspeed will flag content referencing intentions of violence, drug and alcohol use, sex, self-harm, hate speech, pornography, etc. It will also analyze images to block pornography and obscene visuals from reaching students.

Lightspeed representative review google files throughout the day and night and send alerts to administrators at the school and the district office. School administrators will contact parents/guardians when an alert is received. If a parent/guardian cannot be reached, administrators will contact local law enforcement to request a well-check on students of alerts regarding threats of self-harm.

All school rules apply to the content on a student's Google Drive. Students are encouraged to practice responsible digital citizenship.

Lightspeed Alert is another tool CUSD uses. This tool is an anonymous tip line for students to share concerns about school safety and the well-being of fellow students. Trained professionals evaluate content and send an email regarding non-life-threatening items to school administrators. They will also call school officials in emergency situations and can even contact local law enforcement.

Students may report:

- Bullying

- Planned fights

Students in crisis

- Threats of violence

- Weapons brought to school

- Other urgent situations

CALL: (512) 540-3773

To help parents and students learn more about this initiative, we have created our 1:1 Student Guide website, which you can find at https://1to1.gse.cusd80.com. There is a lot of information on this website, but we feel it is important to the success of this initiative to clearly communicate all of it to our parents and students. We encourage all of you to review this information with your child(ren) so you have a clear understanding of device expectations, maintenance, etc.

Parents and students. Our District and school use a program called Lightspeed on student devices. Lightspeed will notify District and school administration immediately if there are any “key” inappropriate words, phrases and/or photos used/found on the device. This is active anytime the student is on their student device. This includes afterschool hours and on the weekends.

Please remind your student to use their device for educational purposes only. Students found not using their device appropriately risk possible discipline and/ or loss of technology privilege's. It is important the student devices are used properly and for the purpose of education.

Student passwords (both AD/Microsoft and Google) will be reset as follows:

Pattern: first initial + last initial + birthdate (MMDDYY format)

Example: sophomore Ani Smith whose birthday is October 3, 2007 will have their password reset to as100307

7-12 students will be forced to change their password after it is reset

Students can change their Google password by logging in to their Google account (accounts.google.com) with their reset password on any device, at school or at home

• Username for Google is s+id@gse.cusd80.com – example s123456@gse.cusd80.com

Students can change their Microsoft password by either:

· logging on to a CUSD Windows device with their reset password, or

· logging in to the Microsoft portal (myaccount.microsoft.com) with their reset password on any device at school or at home.

• Username for Microsoft is s+id@s.cusd80.com – example s123456@s.cusd80.com

All 2-12 students must change their Microsoft password after it is reset before accessing Infinite Campus.

As part of the 1:1 technology initiative, a student fee of $25 will be added annually to InTouch to enroll in the Device Protection Plan (DPP). Annual enrollment in the plan will minimize the potential repair and/or replacement fees associated with the device.

This year, the fee will be added to accounts on Monday, August 5. The fee must be paid by the due date (Monday, September 2) in order to be enrolled in the plan (click here for instructions to pay the fee in Infinite Campus). All devices will be considered covered by the Device Protection Plan until September 2. If the fee is not paid by September 2, it is implied that the family is opting out of the annual DPP coverage, and although the fee will be shown as "overdue" in InTouch, there is no additional action required on your part. After September 2, you may enroll in the Device Protection Plan only after an inspection of the device at your school's Tech Center.

Students renewing their annual DPP will have continued coverage as long as the payment is made by Monday, September 2.

Students adding the DPP for the first time will need to have their device inspected and enrollment in the DPP does not begin until the fee payment has been received. There will be no refunds given on DPP purchase if a student leaves CUSD or upon graduation. The fee is not prorated for any reason.

Please visit the web address here for more details on the Device Protection Plan.
