Digital Health & Safety presentation TONIGHT 4/8

A message from CHELMSFORD PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT

Courtesy of the Council of Chelmsford Schools, Digital Health & Safety expert Katie Greer is offering a session for parents/guardians at 7 p.m. tonight, Tuesday, April 8, in the Performing Arts Center (PAC) at Chelmsford High School.

 

While much of Katie's work is directed to a younger audience, she acknowledges that many adults are mystified by the digital world we live in. For this reason, she offers a program that helps parents navigate the new normal of technology. 

 

She aims to help parents who want to better understand the boundaries (and opportunities!) of tech. Some of what she'll discuss includes: 

 

Updates on the latest tech trends including popular apps, social networking trends, gaming, sexting and more. 
Social media age limitations - and how often kids are breaking them
Privacy settings, location services, check-ins: Are your devices set-up safely? 
Advice for having real conversations with your child to foster a positive online experience for your family, with suggested restrictions and rules 
Digital health check-in: Is your family doing a good job balancing life and technology? Most KIDS say "NO!"
Smartphones & Age: What's the average age kids get smartphones? Are there alternatives? Is there a right age for kids to get smartphones?
