INTERNET CONTENT FILTERING PROCEDURE

director, or chief of the Muscogee County School District. If the request is to unblock a website,
that website must directly support a lesson plan or business objective.

MCSD website). Note that this form can be used either for blocking or unblocking access
to a website at any building location. Requests to unblock a site can be designated for any
length of time. Any changes in access to a website will be changed for the requested
group only.

Request. DIS Support Requests may be opened at http://help/helpdesk/newlogin.asp or

will meet to approve all requests. The Internet Content Filtering Committee will also
review the content filtering categories annually for possible access revisions.
