Concerned About Screen Time?

Many parents are already concerned about the amount of time their children spend on screens. With remote learning, the time has increased dramatically. 

The resources below remind us how to balance screen time with "Green Time" (thanks to Ms. Naomi for sharing!)

The information below was originally presented at our Parent University in November 2018. The presentation by Dr. Martha Lally from CLC, along with handouts that were provided at that event, are included for your reference. 

We understand that not everything will be as applicable or relevant in our current situation, but there may be good information or reminders for your family to consider.
