Proud to sign this Statement on the Importance of Intentional and Limited Use of Technology and Safeguarding Mental Well-Being today.

At our 8/27 meeting, the Board approved a statement on limiting use of technology and social media, including to urge evidence-based use of tech, balanced and age-appropriate habits, and specifically urging families to delay providing their children with smartphones for non-essential use until at least 8th grade— all while acknowledging the importance of assistive technologies for some of our students.

Teaching and modeling responsible use, digital citizenship, and respectful and positive online interactions starts with all of us!
