Hey parents!
We started our review on body safety and cybersafety today for a couple classes. During the course of conversation, several students mentioned spending time on TikTok, SnapChat, and other networking apps/sites, as well as having talked to or sending pictures of themselves to a stranger online. Did you know that TikTok and SnapChat are the number one apps that predators use to solicit minors?
So just a friendly reminder to please abide by social networking age limits (TikTok - teen users, SnapChat - teen users ), monitor your child's technology use, set parental controls, and have conversations with your children about safe/unsafe behavior online.
Our Trojan middle school volleyball is now 11-1, and 9-0 in the league!!! Tonight was our 8th grade recognition night. We are so proud of these 8th grade girls and their hard work this year!

This week in our Suite360 SEL curriculum, students are talking all about emotions. How do we analyze our own emotions and those of others? When we're overwhelmed with our big emotions or experiencing a mental health crisis, how can we ask for help or how can we support someone else in this same position? To learn more about what, specifically, your student will be talking about or continue this conversation at home, please take a look at your parent newsletter --
