Supporting Kids in a Digital World, Community Event
Please mark your calendars for a special event being planned for the Westfield community: Supporting Kids in a Digital World.
For kids, digital life is real life. It's where they build friendships, take a stand on issues, and do so much more. Come learn how we can work together to help students navigate this digital world.
Date: Tuesday, March 26, 2019
Time: 6:15 p.m. - 8:15 p.m.
Where: Westfield High School
The evening will offer a wealth of information for parents through an engaging format. We’ll begin with a large-group presentation (including a student panel) and then breakout into a series of sessions aimed at building understanding around issues facing our kids (and parents) right now. Ultimately, we hope to highlight the importance of taking a shared responsibility in helping our kids learn how to behave safely, ethically, and responsibly online.
In order for us to make this event as meaningful as possible, please respond to the following (short) survey so that we can plan accordingly:
