The Wyoming Area School District has established a partnership starting in the 2024-2025 school year with Sergeant Labs and their AristotleK12 content filtering and device management solution. This is a cloud/agent based solution will install on all student Chromebooks after logging into their WASD issued Google accounts and any personal home computers (Windows or Mac) using a Chrome web browser while signed into their WASD accounts. It's fully CIPA (Children's Internet Protection Act) compliant as required for Acceptable Use of Internet and Networking district resources. Please see the AristotleK12 Info section below along with a features list to help protect students online activity and classroom management to keep students on task.

1. 24/7 content filtering on all district issued Chromebooks to the issued district issued student user account. The district doesn't offer a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) solution so students are not permitted to bring personal computers, Chromebooks, tablets, etc. to school.
