Preparing Our Middle Schoolers for Responsible Digital Lives
With technology playing a significant role in our students’ lives, it is important they understand how to navigate the digital world safely and ethically. To best support our students in developing these lifelong skills, KCSD96 is implementing the Common Sense Digital Citizenship Lessons throughout the year during Flex. Students will explore topics like managing their digital footprint, understanding privacy settings, and recognizing positive and negative online behaviors.
Common Sense is a widely-used resource used by school districts across the country, including in our region. We encourage you to discuss these lessons with your child and help them apply these principles at home. More details about the curriculum can be found at the Common Sense Digital Citizenship Website.
Together, we can support our students in becoming responsible and confident digital citizens. If you have any questions, please reach out to Greg Grana [email protected]
