Digital Citizenship Week – Tuesday: Online Kindness!
Whether you're texting, gaming, commenting on social media, or participating in a group chat, your words matter.
Something that seems funny to one person might be hurtful to someone else. Being a good digital citizen means treating others with the same kindness and respect online that we expect in person.
A few reminders for students:
Think before you type or share.
Don't participate in cyberbullying, even as a joke.
Include others and stand up for those being mistreated.
Remember that screenshots and messages can be shared beyond their intended audience.
Family Conversation Starter: If your child sees someone being bullied in a group chat, what could they do to help? Talk about when to speak up, when to leave the conversation, and when to involve a trusted adult.

Digital Citizenship Week — Monday: Think Before You Post!
Every picture, comment, video, and message contributes to your digital footprint.
Before hitting POST, take a moment to think! Even deleted posts and disappearing messages can be saved, shared, or screenshotted.
Parents/Community Members: Digital citizenship starts with conversations at home. Talk with your child about what they share online, who can see it, and how their online choices can affect them in the future.
