Digital Citizenship Plan
Digital citizenship is an important life skill that helps students navigate the online world safely, responsibly, and respectfully. Families can support digital citizenship by having regular conversations about online safety, respectful communication, balancing screen time, and thinking critically about information found online. This year, Elboya’s Digital Citizenship Plan will be focusing on developing a foundational understanding of AI and digital tools, including their benefits, limitations, and ethical use. Families are welcome to review our DC Plan with students. By working together, we can help students become confident and responsible digital citizens.
Families are encouraged to review this plan to understand how the school is supporting student learning.
