Social Media Code of Conduct

FCSD Social Media Code of Conduct

A district guide to acceptable visitor conduct on all FCSD social media channels.

All of our social media pages will focus on celebrating and supporting our schools, students and teachers, as well as sharing important news and communicating event information. We encourage you to share your support, connect with other supporters, and visit frequently for news and updates.

 

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 Comment Policy may be removed.

 

We have a zero-tolerance policy for cyberbullying and/or posts or comments that are 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 Meta’s Terms of Use.

 

The Fulton City School District encourages user interaction on its social pages, but is not responsible for comments or postings made by visitors to the page. Additionally, the appearance of external links, as posted by followers of this page or other Facebook users, does not constitute endorsement on behalf of the Fulton City School District. External links posted by fans will be removed.

 

You should not provide private or personal information (phone, email, addresses etc.) regarding yourself or others on this page. Any posts or comments containing personal information of this nature will be deleted.
