SJSD Policy on Filtering Apps In order to ensure appropriate content on electronic devices issued through Project Connect in the St. Joseph School District, students will NOT be allowed to load any apps on their iPads that are not already pre-loaded by the SJSD. No personal apps or content is allowed. This is different than last year. Internet Filtering Starting this year, all internet content (no matter which wifi a student is using) will be filtered through the SJSD filtering software. Therefore, if a student is using the internet off school grounds, it will still be filtered the same as if they were using the schools wifi.
