Student Laptop Wireless Access Policy

Students may elect, with parent permission, to bring their personal laptops to school for educational purposes. The use of such laptop in class is at the sole discretion of the teacher and is to be used only with the teacher’s approval.

The MCPS Acceptable Use Policy and Guidelines for Network Access applies to all use of computers on campus, even personal laptops. (Parents and students may read the Acceptable Use Policy and Guidelines for Network Access in the MCPS Code of Student Conduct, page 13.)

Students bringing their personal laptops to school agree to the following:

  1. School and/or district personnel will not check or troubleshoot issues with student-owned laptops.

  2. If a student laptop is believed to have been involved in any activity that is not acceptable (as outlined in the Code of Student Conduct), school personnel have the right to check the laptop for such activity and will follow the Student Code of Conduct for any disciplinary action required.

  3. Each student will access the Internet via the MCPS/FHS wireless network using his/her Student Active Directory account. (Username/password available from any teacher or the media center).

  4. The login screen will appear when the student opens the Internet browser within range of a wireless access point. (At this time, wireless access points are located in C & D hallways, media center, TV Productions, A166, building 11 and the cafeteria.)

  5. Students are not allowed to connect to the WIRED network with personally owned laptops. If this happens, the student will not be allowed to bring laptop to school for the remainder of the school year and his/her account will no longer be authorized to connect to the wireless network.

  6. MCPS can limit a student’s access to the MCPS wireless network.

  7. MCPS can remove any laptop from the MCPS wireless network due to inappropriate activity.

  8. All laptop Internet content will be filtered. Students tempting to circumvent the filter will be removed from the wireless network.

  9. Handheld devices or portable game controllers will not be allowed to connect to the MCPS network.

  10. MCPS and/or FHS will not be responsible if the laptop is lost, stolen, or damaged. Care of the laptop is the sole responsibility of the student.

Laptop Requirements:

  • 1 GHz or above processor
  • 512 MB RAM or above
  • Wireless network card: must support 802.11 B/G standards
