Internet Filtering Changes

During the Thanksgiving holiday week, we have removed the filter company provided by the state (GoGuardian) and moved to the newer LightSpeed product for web filtering for our county.  You should no longer see your browser reopen when you close it and the restrictions for Google-owned websites (mainly in the Chrome browser) like Gmail.com have also been removed.  This also allows us once again to allow and block access to videos on YouTube.

There will also be a new option for all teachers to be able to monitor and interact with the students in their classroom.
