CISD District Staff Guidelines for Responsible Use of Technology Resources

In Crandall ISD, we equip our staff with tools they need to be successful, effective, and efficient 21st century professionals. The RUP is intended to define responsible behavior that guides faculty and staff in the use of technology resources in Crandall ISD.

All staff are required to review these guidelines at the beginning of each school year and agree to the terms in writing or electronically.
