Netiquette

An unmoderated listserver like ours respects subscribers' freedom of speech; it also relies on subscribers' good sense and common courtesy in order to build a thriving community that everyone will want to participate in. Here are a few netiquette tips:

• During the transition period from junior high to Da Vinci, for topics specific to Emerson, Harper, or Holmes, please use the listservers administered by your jr. high in order to minimize confusion to subscribers from a different school.
  
  
• The listserver is an appropriate forum to address general questions, not questions that involve your student's privacy. Please contact the counselor directly to address those.
  
  
• Avoid using actual names when discussing student or teacher topics.
  
  
• Address problems about individual teachers with your student's counselor or administrator, NOT through this listserver. It's only fair to give teachers a chance to present their viewpoints.
  
  
• Messages sent via our listserver are meant for the list members only. Please don't forward to non-subscribers without the expressed consent of the original sender.
  
  
• Do not disclose subscribers' email address to non-subscribers.
  
  
• Do not use this listserver for solicitations.
  
  
• Delete irrelevant original message when replying.
  
  
• Use a distinct and succinct SUBJECT title.
  
  
• Practice internet safety. Do not send private information by email.
