ADW Ed Tech - er
Family Edition, April 2019
The Easter Season....
The newly revised Student & Parent Technology and Internet Usage Agreement form has been updated in TADs (in Spanish and English) for families to acknowledge and sign. I have also published this form on both the principal and teacher websites. We strongly encourage technology educators, teachers, and administrators to review this form with both parents and students. It is important that we outline the clear technology expectations set forth by the Catholic Schools Office and all ADW schools.
This edition of the ADW Ed Tech-er includes articles, tools, and resources for families. It is more important now than ever, that we provide them with tools and resources to embrace the ever-changing technology their children are exposed to daily.
