IROQUOIS CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT — At the district’s annual Internet‑safety hearing, a superintendent’s presentation outlined the district’s digital safety tools, data‑protection measures and the district’s interpretation of Ed Law 2‑d compliance.

The superintendent said the district uses an iboss filtering system with keywords that are updated when trends arise, and that flagged content is routed to technology staff who notify school principals and follow up with students when necessary. The superintendent described password and access rules for staff accounts, saying network passwords include length and complexity requirements and are changed quarterly; staff also use multi‑factor authentication for district accounts. “Ed Law 2 d. It has to do with regulations to protect PII,” the superintendent said, referencing the law’s protections for personally identifiable information.

The superintendent noted that multi‑factor authentication is in place for faculty and staff only and that students are restricted from using personal cellphones during the school day. The presentation said filters also look for sequences that resemble Social Security numbers to prevent transmission of protected personal data by email.

Board members asked whether the Remind messaging app was still in use. Participants said Remind was removed from district use for Ed Law 2‑d compliance and that ParentSquare and other platforms (including ClassDojo by teacher choice) are used districtwide. The superintendent said staff are aware that individual staff or families may maintain third‑party messaging outside district systems and that the district will follow up to encourage consistent practices.

No formal action was taken; the hearing served to document the annual Internet‑safety review required by statute and to allow board members to ask clarifying questions.
