Students may not apply for membership; however, they must submit a Student Activity Information Form to the advisor(s) along with any other verifiable information about themselves. The Student Information Form will then be reviewed by a faculty council made up of five faculty members. After careful review by the council, membership will only be granted to those students who meet or exceed all of the four areas of accomplishment based on scholarship, leadership, character and service. Students must have attended MCHS for at least one year. Students selected for membership in NHS must participate in an induction ceremony to become a member. Members are expected to maintain the standards for which they were selected. GOLD AND SILVER CARD PROGRAM Gold and Silver academic cards are awarded each semester based on the grades listed on grade sheet printouts maintained by the office. A Gold Card is given to a student who receives a 4.0 GPA AND has no disciplinary actions during this period. A Silver Card is given to a student who receives a minimum 3.5 - 3.9 GPA AND has no disciplinary actions during this period of time. 32
Gold card holders will receive one (1) day of exemption during the following semester of obtaining their gold card. The student MUST have received prior approval from a member of the high school administration BEFORE taking their day of exemption. Days may not be taken during MAP testing or semester finals. An awards assembly will be held at the end of the year for any student who has held a card for the present school year. STUDENT ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY TECHNOLOGY USAGE The McDonald County R-I School District recognizes the educational and professional value of electronics-based information technology, both as a means of access to enriching information and as a tool to develop skills that students need. The district's technology exists for the purpose of maximizing the educational opportunities and achievement of district students. The professional enrichment of the staff and Board and increased engagement of the students' families and other patrons of the district are assisted by technology, but are secondary to the ultimate goal of student achievement. Use of technology resources in a disruptive, manifestly inappropriate or illegal manner impairs the district’s mission, squanders resources and shall not be tolerated. Therefore, a consistently high level of personal responsibility is expected of all users granted access to the district’s technology resources. Development of students' personal responsibility is itself an expected benefit of the district technology program. Definitions For the purposes of this policy and related regulation, procedures and forms, the following terms are defined: • User -- any person who is permitted by the district to utilize any portion of the district’s technology resources including, but not limited to, students, employees, school Board members and agents of the school district. • User Identification (ID) -- any identifier that would allow a user access to the district’s technology resources or to any program including, but not limited to, e-mail and Internet access. • Password -- a unique word, phrase or combination of alphabetic, numeric and non-alphanumeric characters used to authenticate a user ID as belonging to a user. TECHNOLOGY ADMINISTRATION The Board directs the superintendent or designee to create rules and procedures governing technology usage in the district to support the district’s policy, as needed. The Board directs the superintendent or designee to assign trained personnel to maintain the district’s technology in a manner that will protect the district from liability and will protect confidential student and employee information retained or accessible through district technology resources. Trained personnel shall establish a retention schedule for the regular archiving or deletion of data stored on district technology resources in accordance with 33
