After speaking to parents and guardians across ACPS, we have identified that the option to manage school devices at home is a community priority, and so\u00a0ACPS has acquired a new program called <strong>Securly Parent Portal<\/strong> to allow parents to do this.<\/p>\n<p>Securly Parent Portal enables parents to monitor and take some control over their child&#8217;s online activity outside of school. Parents and guardians of students who take home Chromebooks will receive a weekly summary of online activity and have the option to download a mobile app to monitor activity outside of school. Parents will only have access to view online activity that takes place outside of school.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In addition to the parent portal, Securly has also provided ACPS with improved Chromebook monitoring tools to detect potential self-harm, cyberbullying and violence. If ACPS is alerted of potential safety threats, school administrators will be notified and work with families to address the individual concerns.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.acpsk12.org\/news\/?p=11421\">Parents and guardians have received information<\/a> with directions and login credentials in the mail.
