Student Internet Opt-Out

The Quincy School District uses an opt-out program for internet access and digital learning services. If you wish for your student not to have access to the internet at school and/or certain district-provided digital services, please fill out the Opt-Out Form below or obtain a paper copy from your student’s school office.

As part of our digital learning environment, the district provides students with access to Google Workspace for Education, Microsoft Office 365, YouTube, and other digital tools or platforms to support learning. These services comply with COPPA, FERPA, and platform-specific parental consent policies. By default, students receive accounts for these tools to complete coursework, collaborate, and access district-approved educational resources.

Parents/guardians may choose to:

  • Opt out of internet access entirely (preventing school-based internet use).
  • Opt out of specific digital services, such as Google, Microsoft 365, YouTube, or other district-provided platforms.

Much of the district’s curriculum is internet-based, so we strongly encourage parents and guardians to discuss alternative options with the Technology Director or district administrators before opting out. These options may include blocking email or restricting internet access to educational websites through our content filtering system.

To proceed with an internet and/or digital services opt-out request, please submit the form below.
