Upcoming PTA Meeting

You won’t want to miss our upcoming PTA meeting on Tuesday, March 15th at 6:30pm.

The meeting will have an update from the school administration and will feature a discussion panel of several Mosaic parents who grew up in countries outside the United States who will share their experiences navigating the American public school system with their children.

Here is the link to the meeting. PTA meetings are open to any Mosaic parent, not just PTA members.

Digital Citizenship Tips and Advice for Families

Help Kids Fight Cyberbullying and Other Mean Online Behavior

"Most kids will encounter mean behavior at some point in their digital lives. For some kids, this experience is a blip that's easily forgotten, while for others it can have deep, long-lasting effects. For parents, the key is staying involved in kids' lives -- both online and off -- so they can step in and offer help if necessary. With guidance from parents and educators, kids can learn how to dodge the drama and stand up for others."
