Education Notes
District to host Social Media Parent Presentations
The School District of Lee County will host Social Media Parent Presentations on March 26 at 6 p.m. at Cape Coral High School and on April 8 at 6 p.m. at Varsity Lakes Middle School.
Parents who need help managing their child’s screen time and making their way through the maze of social media can attend either of the seminars regardless of where their children go to school.
The THINK Model is one simple tool for effective social media use. It ask the person posting to “THINK” of these five questions first:
– Is it True?
– Is it Helpful?
– Is in Inspiring?
– Is it Necessary?
– Is it Kind?
