📣School starts on Tuesday! Before Posting Back-to-School Photos, Share Smiles, Not Sensitive Information📸

Social media will light up with proud parents posting first-day photos. It's a heartwarming tradition, but it can also unintentionally expose sensitive information about your child.

Details like school name, grade level, teacher, age, and even physical characteristics may seem harmless, but they can be exploited by predators or scammers targeting your child or family.

It is worth treating everyday details with the same caution you would give to a password or a PIN. Celebrate safely with fun captions, close-ups of backpacks or shoes, or a creative back-to-school sign that does not include identifying information. Let's keep the memories joyful and private.
