This is evident in many ways; secure entrances,\u00a0background checks on staff members, regular drills to prepare for dangerous situations like tornadoes, fires, intruders, or other disasters, and much, much more.<\/p><p>It&#8217;s important to us that you also know that we also care deeply about protecting our students <strong><em>DIGITALLY<\/em><\/strong>. We go to great lengths to make sure that the interactions a student is having online are safe and appropriate, that the data we collect about them as they go through school is securely held, and that we are helping students to continue to make good digital decisions when they are not under our watchful eye. These digital efforts are often less visible than our physical security efforts, so we assemble the following information to increase awareness of these important measures that are happening in LPS

You should know that LPS is not using the free version of Zoom, so we can set our students&#8217; environment up to be more appropriate for our educational uses. This has been our practice for many years prior to COVID-19 related remote learning, and continues to be the case. For example:<\/p><ul><li>Because of an integration with our student information system, student meetings are uniquely generated by period and require LPS credentials to join.\u00a0<\/li><li>Meetings begin with a waiting room enabled. This puts the teacher in control of who is admitted to their meeting room, and when.<\/li><li>Private chat between meeting guests (students) is turned off.\u00a0 Students can chat with the host (teacher) but not with each other.<\/li><li>Screen sharing is limited to the meeting host (teacher). A teacher can choose to allow student screen sharing.<\/li><\/ul><p>These changes (and a handful of others) dramatically reduce the likelihood that obscene disruptions could occur in our environment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-218d842\" data-id=\"218d842\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ae7f7e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"2ae7f7e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"10342\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/home.lps.org\/cs\/2014\/08\/27\/mobile-apps-that-connect-to-lps-systems\/zoomiosicon\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/home.lps.org\/cs\/files\/2014\/08\/ZoomIOSicon.png\" data-orig-size=\"300,300\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"ZoomIOSicon\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/home.lps.org\/cs\/files\/2014\/08\/ZoomIOSicon.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/home.lps.org\/cs\/files\/2014\/08\/ZoomIOSicon.png\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/home.lps.org\/cs\/files\/2014\/08\/ZoomIOSicon-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-image-10342\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/home.lps.org\/cs\/files\/2014\/08\/ZoomIOSicon-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/home.lps.org\/cs\/files\/2014\/08\/ZoomIOSicon.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" data-attachment-id=\"10342\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/home.lps.org\/cs\/2014\/08\/27\/mobile-apps-that-connect-to-lps-systems\/zoomiosicon\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/home.lps.org\/cs\/files\/2014\/08\/ZoomIOSicon.png\" data-orig-size=\"300,300\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"ZoomIOSicon\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/home.lps.org\/cs\/files\/2014\/08\/ZoomIOSicon.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/home.lps.org\/cs\/files\/2014\/08\/ZoomIOSicon.png\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-76c7264 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"76c7264\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>Constant Adjustments<\/b><\/p><p>LPS stays alert to Zoom&#8217;s recommendations around best practice for enterprises of our size and type.\u00a0In consultation with our curricular and instructional specialists, we regularly adjust settings and update teaching staff with improved strategies to boost student engagement and maintain a secure learning environment.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p><p><b>Enterprise Accounts<\/b><\/p><p>Staff who host Zoom meetings for LPS (with students, parents or with other staff) are required to use their LPS Zoom account.
