“The President of the United States, our schools and government all use social media,” said Pocomoke High School Assistant Principal Matthew Record. “You are communicating with the world and it’s watching.”
The new guidelines include telling school personnel when a student intends to start an account, trying to keep professional and personal information separate, not using specific addresses, full names or phone numbers, and always making sure posts go along with the mission and values of the schools.
In addition to the guidelines, cyber-civility handouts were created and changes were made to the student code of conduct to incorporate social media.

So you want my kids to tell the principal when I allow them to open a social media account? Sorry, but it's none of your business, Mr. Principal!
Im sorry, but this is a joke.
So, now the will begin to police social media, lol. Do they not think we as parents are capable of this? Do the think a handout will deter anything?
This is just a "look at what we did" moment.
Seriously, schools, save your paper.
Progressive/Socialist Recipe:
Take one Nanny State, and fold in Stasi to taste.
Prepare ahead of time.
Might as well get the kids prepared for the lifelong spying and data collection the government imposes on its citizens.
They should be savvy enough by now to set their "privacy" settings so their profiles are not searchable or publicly viewable.

Perhaps you should re-read the first portion of your comment. Spying and data collection will make any "privacy settings null and void."
