Securly - Internet Filtering
District 70 uses Securly - A Student Safety Company, to provide students with a safe experience when using their school-issued devices. At school, Securely provides teachers with monitoring tools for the classroom. At home, Securly provides families access to their student(s) online activity using the free SecurlyHome app. With the SecurlyHome app, families have the option to have real time access to their student’s online activity. Parents also receive weekly online activity reports via a Securly email, too. During daytime educational time window browsing activity will be summarized as EDU content, but outside of the school hours, parents will be able to see more detailed child Internet activity.
