Important Information and Guidelines

Disclaimers:

• ALL district, school and class websites must be housed on a FCPS server. We have absolutely no control over a website, which is housed on an outside server. There are daily occurrences of websites being taken over and replaced with inappropriate material. Therefore, we attempt to limit that possibility by housing all our websites on our own servers, over which we have full control.

ANY WEBSITE which might appear to be part of Fayette County Public Schools, but is located someplace other than on the school website and is maintained by someone other than the school webmaster should include a disclaimer. For example, the alumni association or the booster club of a school may ask to have their website linked from the school website.
