Manchester Jr/Sr High School posts acceptable use policies for our students and staff. Although blogs and social networking are not officially blocked, students are not suppose to access these forms of communication while at school.
I can think of several advantages for using online communication. (such as a blog post which students would respond to or a class moodle) I am always looking for ways to differentiate instruction and incorporate new technology - I am looking forward to "experimenting" with this in my science classroom this fall!

nice picture in the sidebar, by the way. I can see how the social networking sites would be distracting in a school setting - Susan Weller pointed out that's why your system blocks them. I'm not even capable of sitting in front of a computer at a seminar or workshop and not reading my e-mail or checking my favorite political blogs and news sites.
