Note to Parents-Guardians:

We have provided the following websites for your child's fun and enjoyment and to assist them in conducting research on the web. Please take note that because of the nature of the Internet, and the World Wide Web in particular, it is still possible to access a series of links that may take one to almost anywhere. In other words, in spite of our efforts to supply appropriate material and links on this page, parents should supervise children while they surf the Web. Istem recommends that before allowing your children to surf the Web, please read the Parent's Guide to the Internet by the US Dept. of Education with your family.

The iSTEM Web Site, www.lausd.net/istem, identifies resources and links to other websites that would appear useful for our readers. The opinions expressed on these pages are solely those of the host website and not necessarily those of the Los Angeles Unified School District. Any advertising presented on these pages is solely the responsibility of the host site and not the Los Angeles Unified School District.

Site Security:

For security purposes and to make sure this service remains available to all users, we use specific software programs for monitoring network traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change information or otherwise to cause damage to government computer systems.

These programs collect no information that would directly identify individuals, but they do collect information that could help LAUSD identify someone attempting to tamper with this Web site.

Users of this system should understand that all activities may be monitored and recorded. Anyone using this system expressly consents to such monitoring. WARNING: If such monitoring reveals possible evidence of criminal activity, monitoring records may be provided to law enforcement officials.

Except for authorized law enforcement investigations, we make no other attempts to identify individual users or their usage habits. We only use raw monitoring data logs for determining trends in usage patterns and in diagnosing systems problems.

If you have any questions or comments about the information presented here, please forward them to jean.sais@lausd.net.
