Re:No answer will be perfect (Score 1)

I didn't read all the responses so I apologize if someone has already hit on this. I am the tech manager for a public school and it is a requirement for us to filter Internet access or we lose some federal funding. Having said that, I agree with rotide, be reasonable, have a good AUP, enforce the AUP, be reasonable. I'm not heavy handed with the filtering, when I first installed the filter I used broad, generic terms and then opened things up as teachers made requests. Sure, students can get around it with proxies but if they get caught, they get a detention up to a suspension. And we keep a detailed log so when miss perfect's perfect mother does come in and accuse the school doing wrong we can (and we did) prove that the student was accessing the porn somewhere else. That was a good day. :)
