WRJH Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) Policy 
Technology plays a large role in our students’ lives. Personal devices can enhance and enrich learning opportunities both at home and at school. WRJH is committed to allowing responsible use of personal devices at school so as to provide as many pathways to understanding as possible for our students.  If a teacher is using technology in a classroom lesson or activity, all students will be provided access to necessary devices.  If you decide to allow your student to bring a personal learning device on campus, it is permitted. 
General Info 
Access to the WRJH wireless network, whether with school-provided or personal devices, is filtered. However, access from personal devices is limited to Internet use only. Students will not have access to any documents that reside on the school network from their personal devices. Access to the WRJH wireless network is a privilege, not a right. 
Any use of the wireless network entails personal responsibility and compliance with all school rules. The use of the Reynoldsburg City School’s network also allows administration to conduct investigations regarding inappropriate Internet use at any time. 
Guidelines for use 
●	Use of personal devices during the school day is at the discretion of teachers and staff.  	   	   Students must use devices as directed by their teacher. 
●	The primary purpose, and only purpose, of the use of personal devices at school is  	   	    	   educational.
