Digital Citizenship and On-line Safety
Social media has become a very popular and effective means of communication for a large segment of our society. Many of our students rely upon a multitude of social media accounts to connect with one another and share information.
At Crossfield Elementary, we regularly emphasize to our students the necessity of digital citizenship when using social media or the Internet, to ensure that they are using their accounts in a respectful and responsible manner. The intent of our presentations and discussions with students is to ensure that they are informed, responsible and safe when going on-line or using the Internet.
We encourage parents to talk to their children about their child’s use of social media and to monitor their on-line activities to ensure that they are safe at all times. Any threats or violations of privacy that put a child at risk should be immediately reported to the RCMP.
