What this document actually says
This draft policy establishes guidelines for Reed Union School District's official social media accounts. The policy aims to improve communication with families and the community while ensuring accessibility, privacy protection, and responsible use. Key provisions include: requirements that all district social media be accessible to individuals with disabilities, restrictions on posting confidential student or staff information, compliance with public records laws, and adherence to existing student privacy policies. The policy clarifies that district social media accounts are not open public forums and content must align with educational purposes. Staff and students who misuse official accounts face discipline. The policy is pending approval with a last review date of March 10, 2026.
What this means for your family
This policy governs how the district uses Facebook, Instagram, and other social media to communicate with families. It protects your child's privacy online by limiting what student information can be shared. You'll continue to receive school updates through social media, but the district will ensure these platforms are accessible to all families and used appropriately for educational purposes only.
