This October, our 1st - 8th grade students have been diving into an important Digital Citizenship lesson on Media Balance and Well-Being!

In today's world, technology and media are everywhere, from smartphones and tablets to streaming services and YouTube. Kids enjoy the easy access to TV shows, games, and information, while parents appreciate that this tech allows children to stay connected and engaged during their independent explorations. However, it’s important to find balance, as constant notifications and automatic episodes can lead to overuse.

To maintain a healthy relationship with media and technology, families can adopt a few simple practices. Let's work together to ensure our kids benefit from technology while also enjoying meaningful offline experiences!
