DIGITAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT (DLE)
Greenwich Public Schools provides each child with access to computer technologies including the Internet. Access to the Internet enriches children’s educational experiences and provides necessary skills in order for them to collaborate, research and communicate in our global society. Within this context, Greenwich Public Schools makes every effort to provide a safe and appropriate experience for your child.
As part of the library media curriculum, students are expected to be reliable and safe digital citizens. In the beginning of the school year, students are introduced to the expectations for their grade level as well as the GPS Responsible Use Policy (RUP). These rules are reinforced both in the classroom and in the learning commons throughout the year. Students are held accountable for their actions online and on their devices.
