The district’s web filter provides a portal for staff to utilize for testing a website’s Allow/Block status. This allows teachers to test websites they wish to use with their students before asking students to access them. If a site is blocked they can easily make a request to have the website unblocked. The Technology Team will typically have the site unblocked within 24 hours.
