THE JAGUAR JOURNAL Respect, Ready, Responsible, Proud November 2, 2018 Dear Parent(s), Guardian(s) and Caregiver(s),

Over the past several weeks the issue of social media usage by 9-11 year olds has become an area of focus at Johnson School. Most, if not all social media sites and apps require students to be 13 years of age to sign up. That said, social media usage by fourth and fifth graders is not appropriate. Sites such as Nov 6, 2018 Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Vine, and Whisper are not suitable for children NO SCHOOL at this age. Although some sites such as YouTube and Minecraft are popular and Professional often accessed, parents need to be particularly vigilant as they offer an Development opportunity to chat with strangers and potential predators.

Nov 9, 2018 Additionally, texting, iChat, and iMessaging all leave a digital footprint and has Veteran’s Day the potential for misuse, which is why it is particularly worthy of increased Assembly parental supervision. Please join me in a commitment to keeping our children 9:00 am at BMS safe. Many children don’t realize the consequences that come with social media. They underestimate how easily accessible their information is, and can forget Nov 13, 2018 that others are watching their online activity. PTO Meeting 7:00 pm
