The district uses social media as a platform to communicate with parents, students, and engage with the community. We update social media pages regularly to share district events, celebrate student and staff achievements and important district information.
Social media pages are maintained by Krum ISD campus and central administration staff and are moderated during regular business/school hours. The district’s social media commenting guidelines will be used as a basis for monitoring comments.
Commenting on District Social Media Sites:
The district’s social media sites are available for all visitors to add their comments to district posts. Please keep comments relevant to the post. All posting of comments are at the discretion of the editors. The intent of these guidelines is not to keep any negative or critical information from being posted, but to protect the privacy and rights of district staff and students. The district reserves the right to remove inappropriate comments that do not adhere to the commenting guidelines below. The District will not remove otherwise permissible comments based on viewpoint. All content related to District business on these social media sites are public record, subject to retention and disclosure. The District reserves the right to update these guidelines at any time.
