3. Educate staff members and students on using technology within the boundaries of the law<br>
4. Guide teachers and students on how the Internet can serve as effective educational tools<br>
5. Formulate clear guidelines to protect students and teachers against cyber bullying and other criminal activities<br>

The HSTW Assessment, administered to seniors, is used by HSTW states, districts and schools to document school improvement efforts. It is comprised of three subject tests (reading, mathematics and science) coupled with a student survey. This assessment provides comprehensive school-level data that disaggregate students' achievement by their perceptions of school and classroom experiences. These results have given schools, districts and states a unique opportunity to determine what is and is not working to increase student achievement. The assessment is administered by all HSTW sites in even-numbered years.
