GPS and Cameras. The primary intent of Global Positioning System (GPS) and Cameras is to improve student and employee safety, to enhance the way in which the District can promptly locate and protect its property, to reduce paperwork, and to increase efficiency. GPS may be installed on all buses and vehicles used to transport students including Family Ed. and the Attendance Officer vehicles. The District will ensure that employees affected by the use of the GPS receive proper notification of its installation and general capabilities. The primary purpose of GPS technology on District school buses and vehicles used to transport students is to monitor location of the vehicles and to ensure safety of students and drive in the event of accidents or emergencies. The District will utilize proper discipline standards in accordance with the Collective Bargaining Agreement. The District will not use GPS as a primary impetus leading to discipline. The GPS and Cameras may be used for disciplinary evidentiary purposes. The District will not engage in random, arbitrary, or capricious surveillance of employees.
