Digital Citizenship

At Memorial School Kindergarten and Grade 1 students take part in three Digital Citizenship lessons each school year.

The goal of these lessons is to familiarize students with age appropriate ideas and strategies for using technology.

Our Library Media Specialist and our Technology Integration Specialist work with students during these lessons.
