Social Media Terms of Use
The purpose of Centerville Schools' social media accounts is to share news and events from across the district and to provide a place for our community to connect with one another and share constructive dialogue about our schools.
We reserve the right to delete comments that are profane, obscene, offensive, misrepresentative, or that identify individuals in a potentially detrimental manner. Individuals who repeatedly violate these terms may be blocked from commenting on our social media pages.
Specifically, we will hide or delete comments when:
-
Users participate in name-calling.
-
They advertise or promote services/products not approved by the district.
-
They violate copyright and fair use laws.
-
They include inappropriate language, statements, or profanity. This includes remarks, images, GIFs, emojis, etc. that are vulgar, lewd, racist, homophobic, and/or sexist.
-
They are abusive toward a specific student or staff member.
-
They include profanity, or simulated profanity. Inserting symbols, such as *** is not permitted and will be removed.
-
They incite violence or make threats or are threatening against the district and its staff and students.
-
They encourage breaking the law or encouraging others to do so.
-
They are unrelated to the original message and spirit of the post.
-
They are political in nature.
We will ban users if comments:
-
Are repeated, frequent violations of the above.
-
Endanger others.
Our goal is to build community and celebrate our schools, students, and staff, not to provide a forum for negativity and complaints. For that, we encourage our followers to review our Report a Concern page or search for PO 9130 in the Board Policy Manual.
