cyberspace.<p>The regulation makes it clear to parents that youths will be on the Internet in school and that students will have to follow the district’s regulations on the proper use of computers, said board member Kevin Porter.</p><p>Current district policy states that students may not to download obscene or other improper material from the school’s computers.</p><p>“There needs to be some
