Good Morning Glenburn Families,
This message is to update you on the internet filtering issues we experienced at the school on Friday.
The steps we took on Friday were done out of an abundance of caution. We did not have a clear picture of the situation as of dismissal on Friday. Our filtering vendor had a software issue on Friday morning that resulted in legitimate educational websites being flagged as sites that should be blocked. This affected all of our vendor's customers. To remedy this situation, our vendor decided to restore their filtering database from backups. To perform this restoration, our vendor transitioned all of their clients to a filtering posture our vendor calls "CIPA Compliance Mode" on Friday afternoon. This filtering posture uses a static list of blocked websites to maintain our compliance with CIPA, the Children's Internet Protection Act.
At Glenburn, our standard Internet filtering configuration filters more categories than required by CIPA. We do this to promote the use of student devices as productive educational tools. With the switch to CIPA Compliance Mode on Friday afternoon, staff observed that students had access to websites that are routinely blocked as time wasters or distractions. At no point was student access to the Internet completely unfiltered. According to our vendor, we maintained a CIPA compliant filtering posture throughout Friday's event.
Our vendor completed their maintenance over the weekend and our filtering configuration is back to normal. We are monitoring the situation and will update you should the need arise. If you have any questions, feel free to contact the school at any time.

Good afternoon Glenburn families,
Early this afternoon the Glenburn school became aware that our internet filtering program had crashed. Students rapidly made staff aware of this and we discontinued the use of laptops and IPads. We are also asking that all students leave their devices here at school this weekend until we can verify that the filtering software we use is working correctly again. To any families who already have devices at home, we ask that you collect your students device and return it to school next week. Again, devices will be returned to students once we can confirm that the filters are working again.
