Filtering Home

Introduction - (as taken from the SLC web site)

The Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) was signed into law on December 21, 2000. In order to receive discounts for Internet Access and Internal Connections services under the universal services support mechanism, school and library authorities must certify that they are enforcing a policy of Internet safety that includes measures to block or filter Internet access for both minors and adults to certain visual depictions. The relevant authority with responsibility for administration of the E-rate eligible school or library must certify the status of its compliance for the purpose of CIPA in order to receive E-rate discounts.

As a result of this law, ESU 10 has provided information and links to help you comply.
