Social Media Rules of Engagement
The goal for using Facebook by the DeKalb County Central United School District (DCCUSD), all of the schools in the District, and teachers or sponsors associated with those schools, is to share important information with our public and engage in an open and respectful dialogue. To help us accomplish this goal we ask that you abide by the following guidelines: Open

conversation not personal issues. This page is not intended to circumvent regular communication channels for sharing personal issues and concerns. Comments regarding a personal issue with the District, a school, or a staff member will be removed. Personal attacks or comments that are deemed offensive to any member of our community will not be tolerated. Inappropriate remarks and profanity will be removed. Running for a political office? Publish a personal page, and leave ours for sharing news and insights about our District. Stay on topic. This is a page dedicated to the education of students in the DCCUSD. Let’s keep the conversation related to our District. Comments of all kinds are welcome so long as they directly relate to our District. Have a question for a specific employee? Contact them privately. Fans should not expect responses to every question or comment posted on this page. Be aware of the mission. The mission of the DCCUSD is education. Please be certain that your comments are appropriate for an educational environment and fans of all ages. Be factual. Blatantly inaccurate information will not be allowed. False information will be removed and factual information will be posted. All comments and communication must come from a verifiable account. Comments made by individuals who are misrepresenting themselves, representing themselves as someone other than themselves or from unverifiable accounts, will be removed. Employees of the DCCUSD may have personal pages. Don’t be surprised or offended if your request to “friend” them is ignored. District policy encourages staff to keep their personal lives personal. This page is yours and we want you to feel comfortable sharing your views about the DCCUSD. Just know, abuse of the above guidelines can lead to the removal of a specific posting or the blocking/removal from our fan page.
