Technology Sites to Use at Home
Do you ever wonder what your children can do at home to continue their education after the school day ends?
If so, below are screen shots that will show families how to help their children access the amazing sites CMS has purchased for students this year. If you do not know your child's Student ID# or password, please contact their teacher; we'd be happy to assist you with that information.
Digital Citizenship
Are you wondering how you can keep your child safe in an increasingly digital world? Idlewild students recently completed a unit of study on digital citizenship, and have learned how to be responsible, respectful and safe in an online environment. There are a wealth of resources available for parents at www.commonsensemedia.org
