This has good resources.

Also, you can check with your State's Attorney's office. We have had a representative come to our school two years in a row. She helped us host a parents night and then she traveled to both our middle school and our high school to do presentations for staff and students.

Hello, fellow Information-jockeys!


I was chatting with a counselor the other day and he was talking about how one of the hardest parts of his job is dealing with the aftermath of stuff students say to each other on social media.  Basically, he said that just a few years ago kids would cool off during the weekend, but now they spend the weekend poking each other online and come in on Monday ready to fight.


Does anyone teach a lesson on the digital footprint?   I was thinking about all of the news stories about sexting, cyberbullying, kids who have been expelled for FB pics, etc.


Most of the digital citizenship stuff we have as policy is really old- like 2006 "Don't tell anyone your real name even if they're your grandma."


I'm curious how you're all updating it.
