Student Data Privacy and Winter Reading List

Data Privacy Reminder
We all play a crucial role in student data privacy. Recently, a neighboring district had a data breach scare which comes as a reminder of how important taking a few simple steps can be.

We do not want this to happen in White Bear Lake. Please work hard to protect your passwords and lock your computer whenever you step away.

To lock your computer, simply press ctrl+alt+delete. Your computer will bring up the screen below. Select lock, and your device will be password protected.


On a Chromebook all you need to do is shut the top, and it will automatically lock.

The protection of student data is also why computers are set to go to the password screen after a certain amount of inactivity.

The cold winter months can be a great opportunity to grow as an educator. Below you will find some great professional reads along the innovation and educational technology avenue. Click on the title of the book to learn more about it!
