Confidentiality
Every effort is used in maintaining the confidentiality of students attending the Hawaii Technology Academy. Parents must give permission before a student's name or image can be displayed in a public manner. Before confidential student information is transferred over the Internet, it is encrypted and can only be decrypted by another party employed or assigned by HTA.
Student files are accessible only to employees of HTA who have an interest in the education of its students. Learning Coaches and students should be careful not to share their K12® Online School (OLS) username and password with any unauthorized individuals. In any case, where a parent or teacher believes the security of the OLS has been compromised, the parent should use the tools provided in the OLS to change their username and password.
In addition, parents are advised to avoid using personal information in e-mails. For example, using a student’s first initial is preferred to using a student’s first name.
