CYBERSAFETY
Cybersafety
At Henry Ford Academy our goal is to teach students the appropriate use of technology.
Henry Ford Academy policy (2023-2024 Student Handbook):
INAPPROPRIATE DIGITAL POSTINGS
Students involved in posting or sharing inappropriate texts, pictures, or videos will be subject to the same consequence as the person(s)/perpetrator(s) in the text, picture, video, or social media site. These postings may include but are not limited to: fighting, sexually explicit pictures/videos, use of language to demean, harass, or bully someone. (For example, a bystander who videotapes a fight and posts it to YouTube will receive the same consequence as those fighting in the video.)
