Web Page Guidelines
All Web pages that Palo Alto Unified School District (PAUSD) sponsors or permits to reside on its Web servers shall reflect the character and mission of our District, school, or school group creating or maintaining the Web page. Pages shall have a clear purpose and contain meaningful information.

All Web pages that become a part of the PAUSD Web site must be created in the context of a course and under the supervision of an instructor.

Web authors are encouraged to include the author's name and school e-mail address on each page. Authors shall also:
  • Identify student work and images only by first name or initials
    • No images of elementary school students are allowed
    • No images of secondary school students are allowed without parent permission
  • Solicit comments from Web page users through school channels only
  • Not establish links to Web pages that violate PAUSD rules
  • Not present copyrighted images, music, or text on Web pages without specific written permission from the copyright owner
  • Properly credit non-copyrighted images, music, and text to the author and retain materials that establish authorship and the lack of copyright
Guidelines are outlined in Section V of the Student Handbook: a Guide to the Internet and District Information Systems for grades 6-12 published by the PAUSD Educational Technology office.
