Web browsers on district computers
Question: Why do all the high school computers use Internet Explorer 6 (which is hated by web designers and rarely used because it has little to no security) when there are free alternatives that work better and are more secure (for example, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and Safari)?
Answer: Although security is an important consideration for our district's web browsers, another consideration is Starweb, our district's web-based student database. Starweb houses all of the essential data on our 2,000 students, including demographic and academic information, such as report cards. All faculty members, administrators and school support staff access Starweb on a regular basis.
