Central Point School District 6 – Social Media Commenting Guidelines

Our D6 social media pages are intended to celebrate and support our schools, students, and staff, as well as to share important news and communicate event information. We encourage families, students, staff, and community members to engage positively—share your support, connect with others, and visit frequently for news and updates.

While we welcome and encourage community interaction, our top priority is the safety, dignity, and well-being of our students, staff, and community members. To help maintain a respectful and secure environment, the following Commenting Guidelines apply to all District 6 social media platforms:

1. Respectful Communication

We have a zero-tolerance policy for:

  • Cyberbullying
  • Personal attacks, name-calling, or harassment
  • Discriminatory, political, racist, sexist, abusive, profane, or obscene content
  • Violent, false, libelous, or threatening statements
  • Ad hominem attacks on students, staff, guests, or others

The district prohibits discrimination and harassment on any basis protected by law, including but not limited to, an individual’s perceived or actual race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national or ethnic origin, marital status, age, mental or physical disability, pregnancy, familial status, economic status, or veterans’ status.

Violating posts will be removed immediately and repeat offenders may be banned.

2. Student Privacy & Protection

Content that identifies a student in a negative way or violates their privacy is strictly prohibited and all such content will be removed.

We do not permit:

  • Posting or tagging of photos by the public (unless requested by District 6)
  • Sharing private or personal information (e.g., phone numbers, email addresses, home addresses)

Any posts containing such information will be deleted to protect individual privacy.

3. Public Records Notice

All comments, messages, and posts made on district-sponsored social media platforms may be subject to public records laws and could be disclosed upon request. Please comment accordingly and remember that these pages are considered public forums.

4. Relevance & Content Moderation

We reserve the right to remove:

  • Off-topic comments or content unrelated to the original post
  • Spam or repeated posting of the same message
  • Posts promoting commercial products or ventures
  • External links (especially those not affiliated with or endorsed by D6)

We invoke an “off-topic” policy and may hide or delete content that disrupts the intended purpose of the post or platform.

5. Participation at Your Own Risk

By participating on our pages, you accept full responsibility for your comments, username, and any information you share. Posts and interactions are also bound by each platform’s Terms of Use.

Central Point School District 6 encourages positive user interaction but is not responsible for comments made by visitors. The appearance of external links or content posted by others does not imply endorsement by D6. In most cases, such content will be removed without notice.

We appreciate your support in making our online spaces welcoming, safe, and respectful for all.

Thank you for helping us celebrate what makes Central Point School District 6 exceptional.
