Summary: In order to provide a safe, connected and managed online learning experience with students, modern tools are needed. These tools keep Silver Valley USD compliant with various policies and regulations such as CIPA and COPPA.

These tools also make it possible for teachers and students to create and maintain a classroom culture of device management and learning.

Blocksi is a highly rated system that incorporates content filtering, active monitoring, student engagement, admin controls, parental access and control, as well as, many other features that are beneficial to the classroom environment.

SVUSD is currently one-to-one with devices, and a system like Blocksi is needed for classroom, admin and parental management of these devices.

Recently, our TST's demonstrated the product live in their classrooms, and every response from them was positive for using the Blocksi system and highly recommend the purchase.
Funding: COVID Relief Funds: $19,260.00 / 1 Year
Recommendation: It is recommended that the Governing Board of Trustees approve the purchase of a Content Filtering Solution System with Blocksi.
