Social Media Commenting Guidelines & District App Privacy Policy

Social Media Commenting Guidelines

The purpose of the Nixa Public Schools’ social media pages is to facilitate an ongoing dialogue on education issues. We encourage your comments and replies; your ideas and concerns are important to ensure that a broad range of community members are active and informed participants in the discussion. Nixa Public Schools reserves the right to modify this policy at any time, and Nixa Public Schools expressly reserves the right to remove comments from its pages.

Nixa Public Schools retains the right to remove or not remove comments. In addition, we expect that participants will treat each other, as well as our district, our employees, and our students, with respect. Comments and replies may be removed if they fall into the following categories:

  • contain vulgar or abusive language, personal attacks of any kind, or offensive terms that target specific ethnic or racial groups
  • promote services or products (non-commercial links that are relevant to the blog post or comment are acceptable)
  • are clearly off-topic, or spam
  • make unsupported accusations
  • reference employees or students by name. 

We won't edit comments and replies to remove objectionable content, so please ensure that your comments and replies contain none of the above.

To protect your own privacy and the privacy of others, please do not include personally identifiable information, such as name, Social Security number, addresses, phone numbers or email addresses in the body of your comment or replies. If you do voluntarily include your name in a comment or reply, which we generally do not recommend, that comment or reply may or may not be removed. In no circumstances will comments or replies be allowed to remain that contain Social Security numbers, addresses, email addresses, phone numbers, or similar personally identifiable information.

Questions you post for Nixa Public Schools may not be answered here. If you have a question for us, please contact 417-875-5400 or email quicknews@nixaschools.net.
