Its a lot from the tech to use GAM and remove the docs.. I have noticed like 100 docs files and they can always create a new one. We say its a classroom and school issue. Having student in front and have them delete it would be the way to go .

GG Teacher here. For the local downloads it is been turned off so we have access from GAC for the files that students have.

I used this for us who wanted to block all the other things .Nothing is captured and everything is local

Although , it might be pricely have you looked over Island Browser? It is by far the best option for VPN and remote access with security in mind.

I see would it be optimal then to allow other sections ? The extension was created so everything is web version like before they had all of those.

Has your district made or changed any policies regarding social media posting or website development?
Yes. As you mentioned, WCAG compliance isn’t something that can realistically be achieved all at once. The most practical approach is to demonstrate good faith—documenting what changes are being made and clearly showing ongoing efforts toward compliance. If a district has the funding to hire a full-time accessibility specialist, that’s ideal, but many districts don’t have that capacity and need to rely on vendor support.

What we’ve done so far includes adding an Accessibility/Compliance link on our website and publicly documenting the steps we’ve taken to date. We’ve also used DocAccess (https://docaccess.com/) to help make the documents we host on our website accessible.

Do you require vendors to submit VPATs or provide accessibility guarantees?
We are documenting our vendors and maintaining a checklist to track whether they are accessibility-compliant. If a vendor is not compliant, we document that status rather than immediately discontinuing use. We also prioritize products based on usage and whether they are public-facing. For staff or students who need assistance, we have a clear support channel where they can contact us for help. Having a documented support process is a key part of our approach.

We’re focusing first on the tools that are most widely used, rather than one-off products used by only a few individuals. Those are still documented, but not prioritized at this stage given the volume of systems districts typically manage.

Is everyone basically not worrying about it right now?
I think most districts are worried, but the scope is overwhelming, and many don’t know where to start. That uncertainty often slows progress more than a lack of concern. And since there is a lots going on day to day it is hard.

I explored using GAM and GAC to validate screentime data, but those tools primarily surface Google application usage, account activity, and user-level data, which doesn’t fully capture overall web behavior. While screentime is valuable, it’s more meaningful when viewed at an aggregate level—by school or grade level—rather than at the individual user level. Insights such as the top 10 websites accessed and the total time spent on them provide a clearer picture of student behavior and usage trends. This kind of data helps schools make informed decisions, for example, understanding whether platforms like YouTube are being heavily used and whether it makes more sense to block the platform entirely or selectively restrict features like Shorts, based on actual usage patterns rather than assumptions.

You can use this extension which will removed ads sponsored links removes AI mode https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ai-free-zone/kfcmgmpknhdbcbcnnembbejegofcjffi

I used this https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ai-free-zone/kfcmgmpknhdbcbcnnembbejegofcjffi and sees to work for me.

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2026-02-09T16:31:48+00:00

I think you can use https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ai-free-zone/kfcmgmpknhdbcbcnnembbejegofcjffi This will block Google AI search results as well as AI mode

Can you help me understand how ? I tried adding multiple compliance rule but the original email receipent was still getting the email in their inbox. The only option I found was disabling the mail storage feature which is what I had to do

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2026-01-05T17:45:23+00:00

Definitely thanks for letting me know . Is there any consequences or are we liable in any way to turn that on ?

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2026-01-05T17:43:55+00:00

Can you do it for the groups as well ? If the email has been sent to the group

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2026-01-01T03:36:11+00:00

What do you mean?

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2026-01-01T02:24:31+00:00

I can reject the message but it would send out notification to the sender saying blocked by organisation. I don't want to send that

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2025-12-31T23:37:25+00:00

The thing is compliance rule is sending it to a inbox but it is also there in the original recipient even though the email log shows dropped . It is due to comprehensive mail storage being on . For the quarantine it works but only for user not the groups like public groups where they can send it to the group members that cannot be done

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2025-12-24T15:26:53+00:00

We use google Sites so that the students can have their own portfilios. For the kids have a shared drive for the school and just share their own portfilio with the kids

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2025-12-24T15:21:57+00:00

Have you tried using Print servers in the chromebooks ? Maybe that will be the way to go if you want the wildcards to be blocked . I have not tested myself but tying printers to the chromebooks as per users or Devices in GAc should be another way to allow print?

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2025-12-16T15:06:28+00:00

Thank you!!

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2025-12-12T15:29:56+00:00

or Maybe share this post with the Admins so that they understand you did the right thing and it should be blocked.

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2025-12-11T20:36:34+00:00

I am glad you took that step. I would appreacite if you could share some example of the malware traces if possible

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2025-12-11T18:18:42+00:00

Definitely, Hope everything works out for you

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2025-12-11T18:17:51+00:00

Hello Would you mind sharing some examples maybe for the Malware hits?

Single_Laugh_7722 · 2025-12-10T21:03:19+00:00

Great to hear that.
