being assigned a page by a net service and actually taking advantage of it are a bit different. i am sure they are not monitoring everything under the sun, but myspace and facebook are the most popular. as i said, last year the IT guy at Visitation, at the administration's behest, printed out the webpages of the kids who were violating the rule. the administration sent them home to the parents, and there were noises that prom and other things might be impacted. it is ridiculous to think that schools cannot impact what kids do outside of school. Last year, there were parties that served alcohol before/after Snowball, and citations were issued by the cops. those receiving citations were not permitted to attend prom. you break the rules, there are consequences.

I'm just trying to understand what your school policy is. And no, MySpace is not the most popular Net Traffic wise. Yahoo is.

Are the students in your school not allowed to have access accounts? Websites? User accounts? What are the rules?

If it was email addresses, then yes, school provided emails can be limited to school use. But kids can't use their own emails? Free mails?

And as I said, school uniforms already come with code of conduct.

What can't the kids do on the net?
