Online Safety

We want your kids to have safe, positive online experiences both at school and at home. These are a few resources we find really helpful when navigating life with digital natives.

Common Sense Media

Common Sense Media is our go-to website and app for all things related to children and media! The site has useful articles, movie reviews, video game ratings, and book suggestions. It is a valuable resource for researching what media is appropriate for you and your family.

The Smart Talk

This collaboration between several companies guides parents and children through the process of developing a set of guidelines for a child's use of technology. Contracts developed and agreed upon by parents and children will set parameters on technology usage in your home.


Kiddle

internet searches can sometimes lead children to inappropriate images and websites. Kiddle is a kid safe visual search engine. Safe sites written specifically for kids are handpicked by Kiddle editors to be the first choices to appear in a search. Other sites are filtered by Google SafeSearch to make sure only the safest sites are shared.

KidRex

KidRex is another safe search option for kids. KidRex searches kid-related webpages using Google SafeSearch technology. The displayed search is easier to read than a traditional Google search and will not allow a child to search inappropriate words.
