Students and parents need to be aware of several rules and requirements before a device is brought to school:

• The student is solely responsible for any equipment that he/she brings to school. The Hempfield School District is not liable for lost, stolen, or damaged equipment. Students are encouraged to secure any devices in their lockers.
• In keeping with the school backpack policy, full-size laptop bags are not permitted during the school day. Students are permitted and encouraged to use sleeve-style laptop cases instead.
• Hempfield School District does not install any software or user accounts on students' personal computers. Students are responsible for securing their devices and making sure that they have up-to-date anti-virus software installed.
• The wireless connection provided for guests is filtered and all web browsing is logged.

Content is filtered and YouTube and other high-bandwidth applications are blocked. A Hotspot Borrowing Agreement must be completed prior to the hotspot being checked out.
