[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As an MCPS teacher, we are trying to hard to limit screen time. The curriculum we are given, plus the crappiest internet monitoring system (GoGuardian was LEAGUES better than Lightspeed is), doesn't give us much flexibility. Students are finding ways to get around Lightspeed. I have emailed [b]IT[/b] so many times to block a site and they haven't blocked a single one I've suggested.[/quote]

There's IT ??? How do you contact them?[/quote]

Parent here.  Yes my kid’s middle school has an IT person.  My kid’s MS teacher wrote that kids were playing games in her class when they should be working and I wrote to ask my kid’s guidance counselor how to block game sites since we don’t have admin rights to the McPS laptops and she gave me the name of the school IT guy and I sent URLs that I found on my kid’s laptop of game sites for him to submit to MCPS to block.  Of course, the gaming sites can change URL in an instant so it’s difficult for MCPS to block them all but if you see them on your kid’s laptop you can report them. [/quote]
