Digital Citizenship

Safe & Smart Digital Practices

Our children live in a digital world. They communicate, create and collaborate through technology and have instant access to a wealth of information and multimedia. Our children are digital natives; never knowing a time without cell phones, texting, Snapchat nor Google. But growing up with these devices and resources does not mean they automatically have the knowledge and skills to carefully evaluate information and make responsible, respectful and safe choices about how they access and use these digital tools. We must guide our students to become cyber-savvy, responsible digital citizens with the 21st Century skills to thrive in our local and global economy.

This year more than ever, we are all digital citizens. Being a digital citizen is all about taking ownership of our actions and using technology responsibly and respectfully. Watch the quick video below to learn more about how digital citizenship is something we can all practice and participate in every day.

Students are required to sign a Digital Learning Agreement. See below for more information.
