DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP

All of our students, even our youngest, are growing up in a world where media and technology have taken center stage. They connect, share, and learn in a digital world with access to more information and resources than any previous generation in human history.

​

The Baldwin County School District believes that while technology can provide our students with incredibly powerful learning experiences, it is also important for us to work together to teach them how to be productive, responsible, and safe members of an ever-growing digital society.  

Common Sense Media

Common Sense Media is an incredible site to help parents navigate the vast pool of media to which our children have access to help them easily determine what is appropriate for their child. Common Sense Media has parent-centered reviews of countless movies, books, tv shows, video games, even YouTube channels!
