General Monitoring of School-Issued Devices

Valley Virtual Remote Learning Academy, either directly or through a technology provider, is electing to generally monitor all school-issued devices (as that term is defined by R.C.3319.325). The monitoring will include the following features: location tracking and student interactions with school-issued devices (e.g., keystrokes and web-browsing activity). Valley Virtual Remote Learning Academy generally monitors these features for the noncommercial education purpose of instruction, technical support, and/or exam proctoring.

Additionally, these features are generally monitored as a necessary precaution for preventing and/or responding to health concerns, and threats to life or safety.
