Social Media Commenting Guidelines

  • Hempfield School District uses social media to provide information about district programs, services, projects, issues, events, and activities and to interact with students, parents/guardians, and residents about public issues.

    While everyone is welcome and encouraged to comment, our first priority is to protect students, staff and community members. Comments and/or posts that do not follow this Commenting Guideline may be removed.

    We do not accept cyberbullying and/or posts or comments that are discriminatory, political, racist, sexist, abusive, profane, violent, obscene, spam, contain falsehoods or are wildly off-topic, or that libel, incite, threaten or make ad hominem attacks on students, employees, guests or other individuals. We also do not permit messages selling products or promoting commercial or other ventures. You participate at your own risk, taking personal responsibility for your comments, your username and any information provided. We reserve the right to delete comments or topics and even ban users if needed. Please be aware that all content and posts are bound by Facebook’s Terms of Use.
