Blocksi Parent Portal

We at Bradley County Schools are committed to providing our students with a high-quality education, whether it be through in-person instruction or virtual learning. We understand you may have questions, so we have included important information below to help you and your student prepare for a successful educational experience. We encourage you to save this communication as a reference.

Our district has chosen Blocksi Manager Education Everywhere (BMEE) to filter content. This cloud-based system has multiple layers and is designed to manage devices, helping to eliminate distractions and spark curiosity. Using BMEE, IT administrators can easily apply geolocalized filtering policies to all devices, ensuring that internet filtering is enforced on every Chromebook based on policies set for web, YouTube, content, time access management, and application filter profiles.

The Blocksi Parent Dashboard and App assist administrators and teachers by enabling parents to monitor their child’s browsing history, control internet access at home, and view frequently visited websites. This provides a better understanding of the browsing behavior of students and encourages more effective internet usage habits at school and home. Additionally, the Parent App allows parents to manage school-issued devices during out-of-school hours.

Blocksi Parent Dashboard 

  • Monitor your child’s activity on their district-issued device
  • Allow parents to view Cyberbullying and self-harm detection

We strive to ensure your child’s online safety while providing educational content. To achieve this, Blocksi collects data to offer our cloud-based internet and YouTube filtering service to GSuite Education users who have logged into their Google account using a desktop computer or a Chromebook.
