Overview

In Birdville ISD, we choose to be responsible and ethical digital leaders.
The Basics
  • Be nice – Don’t be mean to people on the internet just because you’re not face to face.
  • Be honest – Exaggerating is annoying in real life and on the internet.
  • Be yourself – No one wants to find out that the ’15 year old’ is really a creepy old dude.
  • Be fair – Give credit where credit is due. You wouldn’t want someone else using your stuff.
  • Be aware – What you do and say on the web leaves a footprint – make sure it is a footprint you’re OK with others seeing!
