Staff Professional Social Media

Staff Use of Professional Social Media Accounts

The District recognizes that social media is a great way to connect with and engage parents and the community. We also want our staff to be safe and successful when using this form of communication. Guidelines for using social media as a communication tool for your WCSD club, sport, classroom or program/department can be found at the link above. 

All staff who choose to use social media as a component of their club, sport, classroom or program/department must first register that account with the District Technology Department. Staff should contact the Technology Department to recieve a link to the online registration form.

Summary of Professional Social Media Guidelines:
