Social Media Parent Program—April 26th at Rocky Run MS
The Internet is an amazing tool kids can use to do homework, keep in touch with friends and family, and access educational opportunities. However, the Internet is also filled with inappropriate content. Developmentally, the preadolescent and middle school child is still learning impulse control. This can lead them to make decisions in cyberspace that dramatically impact their lives and the lives of their family.
“Exploring the Effects of the Online World on our Kids” will be presented at Rocky Run Middle School on April 26th at 7:00 pm. This program is open to all parents. Parents of elementary and middle school children will find it most useful. Parents will be given information on how to guide and protect kids on-line, what technology is used in the classrooms in FCPS, and receive a multitude of parent resources: parental controls, independent reviews, age ratings, & other information about all types of media kids are using and/or exposed to; and information on apps and websites. In order to make this program more meaningful for our parents, we ask you to complete a short using this link. Your answers to this survey will help us shape the workshops for participants.
