District Celebrates National Arts in Education Week
During the week of September 14, the District joined the celebration of National Arts in Education Week. Arts education is a vital part of what we do in Bibb County schools, and these individuals, like all our educators, have adapted their teaching styles to a virtual setting. We appreciate this effort!
Taylor Elementary Recognized for Digital Citizenship
"We applaud the faculty and staff of Rosa Taylor for embracing digital citizenship as an important part of their students' education," said Liz Kline, vice president of education programs at Common Sense Education. "Rosa Taylor deserves high praise for giving its students the foundational skills they need to compete and succeed in the 21st-century workplace and participate ethically in society at large."
Taylor was specifically recognized for using Common Sense’s resources to prepare students for responsible online activity. This includes protecting their community against cyberbullying, plagiarism and other digital issues.
"We're honored to be recognized as a Common Sense School," said Lashonda Gilbert, Taylor Elementary principal. "By preparing our students to use technology safely and responsibly, we are providing them an opportunity to build lifelong habits to help them succeed in a tech-driven world."
