2022-23 Classroom Assignment Parent Input form
During this time of year we begin the process of creating class lists for the upcoming school year. Since we believe that you have valuable information that should be considered, we want to give you the opportunity to provide some input. The following provides the process to allow parents/guardians to provide input into their student’s placement.
Social Media
Temperatures are becoming warmer and flowers are starting to bloom. We hope that students and their families will begin to spend more time outdoors away from technology devices and social media. However, we know that many youth have access to multiple social media platforms, and their is a prevalence of technology for which our parents must consider. We want to share this video which comes from one of our SEL resources - Second Steps. This video titled "What should parents know about teens and screen time?" We hope this 4 minute is a helpful resource for our families.
