Student safety – in both physical and virtual environments – is of great importance at Cypress-Fairbanks ISD. To ensure that students, their personally identification information, and intellectual property are ethically and legally protected, the District has privacy and data policies in place. Adherence to these policies by vendors and staff greatly increases our ability to protect our students from physical and virtual harm such as identity theft, harassment, and unauthorized data collection.

With the rapid growth and accessibility of technology and resources – teachers, students, and parents have access to an ever increasing wealth of tools to support teaching and learning. Accompanied with this extraordinary access comes great potential to inadvertently leak sensitive student data.

As a district on the cutting edge of innovative uses of technology in education, CFISD is committed to ensuring the protection of our students’ privacy as we continue to transform education – providing world-class quality K-12 systems.
Cypress Fairbanks ISD's application process for the Trusted Learning Environment (TLE) Seal is currently underway. |
The Trusted Learning Environment (TLE) Seal is a mark of distinction for school systems, signaling that they have taken strong and measurable steps to help ensure the privacy of student data.
The TLE Seal is the nation’s only data privacy seal for school systems, focused on building a culture of trust and transparency. The Trusted Learning Environment (TLE) Seal Program was developed by CoSN (the Consortium for School Networking), in collaboration with a diverse group of 28 school system leaders nationwide and with support from AASA, the School Superintendents Association, the Association of School Business Officials International (ASBO) and ASCD.
The Program requires school systems to have implemented high standards for student data privacy protections around five core practice areas: Leadership, Business, Data Security, Professional Development and Classroom. School systems that meet the Program requirements will earn the TLE Seal, signifying their commitment to student data privacy to their community.
TLE Seal recipients commit to high standards and continuous examination and advancement of their privacy practices.
