And speaking of social media…
The middle years are a time when our students are learning and experimenting with social skills as well as their academia. Have you heard of Ask.fm? Social media users who have an account with Ask.fm, may
receive anonymous questions or comments posted to their account. As a matter of fact, the ONLY way to receive a post is anonymously. Please have a frank conversation with your child about Ask.fm, Kik, Snapchat, Twitter, Instagram, etc. Parents should have
access to all passwords. Also, most cell phone companies give you the option of allowing you to choose the hours (times) of usage. As spring is springing into action, your assistance and diligence is appreciated as we continued to help your child to be successful.
