These guidelines apply to all Kaneland Community Unit School District #302 social media channels, including Facebook, X, YouTube, and Instagram.

Please adhere to the following guidance:

D302 social media pages include Facebook, X, YouTube, Instagram, and other platforms that spotlight achievements, events, activities, and additional information. The pages provide information to build connections with families and the community.

D302 expects comments posted on the District's social media pages to be appropriate, respectful, accurate, and constructive. Social media posts that insult an individual or group are deleted. In addition, posts that violate privacy or Facebook's Statement of Rights and Responsibilities are removed.

Some examples include posts or comments that threaten, harass, mislead, discriminate, or promote pornography, profanity, violence, or drugs. Advertisements for politics, religion, and businesses are not allowed.

Failing to follow these guidelines will result in the deletion of the inappropriate comment and potential blocking from all of the District's social media accounts. Please contact the Director of Communications with questions or concerns about the user experience.

We also encourage you to visit our Student Data & Privacy page. The page was designed to help families navigate the federal and state laws that govern student records and privacy, including online protections.
