Student Social Media Sites to Watch
Great information for parents/guardians/teachers and other caring adults. The Internet is a wonderful tool but also can be a dangerous place for young, still developing minds. The more we know as adults the more we can educate our children. Information and photo Courtesy of Harrisburg Elementary School, EducatorAlexander, and Common Sense Media.
