how other teams are meeting the requirement of Utah code 53A-1-706 when they have devices that access internet that are going home? Number 3 is the one that my district is concerned about? Does this apply to UATT equipment?
Utah code 53a-1-706 reads:
Effective 5/10/2016 53A-1-706. Purchases of educational technology.
(1)
(a)
A school district, charter school, or college of education shall comply with Title 63G, Chapter 6a, Utah Procurement Code, in purchasing technology, except as otherwise provided in Subsection (1)(b).
(b)
A school district or charter school may purchase computers from, and contract for the repair or refurbishing of computers with, the Utah Correctional Industries without going through the bidding or competition procedures outlined in Title 63G, Chapter 6a, Utah Procurement Code.
(2)
A school district, charter school, or college of education may purchase technology through cooperative purchasing contracts administered by the state Division of Purchasing or through its own established purchasing program.
(3)
Consistent with policies adopted by a local school board or charter school governing board, a school district or charter school that purchases technology under this section shall ensure that adequate on and off campus Internet filtering is installed and consistently configured to prevent viewing of harmful content by students and school personnel.
Thank you!!
Duchesne County says this about that:
If you have any devices that you or your students take home we can have them go through our filter, we will just have to have the device route back through our filter.
