Netiquette for Coach Flemmer's Sixth Grade Class

Netiquette for Coach Flemmer’s Sixth Grade Class

Coach Flemmer wants all of his sixth graders to follow “Netiquette” anytime we are using the computers in social studies class. Polite online behavior is something that is expected to be followed at all times while in the computer lab. Anyone not able to follow the netiquette guidelines is subject to disciplinary actions such as a verbal warning or denial of computer usage in the future (the action will depend on the severity of the infraction and the discretion of Coach Flemmer and the Frisco Independent School District's Technology Usage Plan).
