I also wanted to pass along a number of resources that I mentioned during the panel discussion.
I'm following up with information for parents of students in grades 6-12* in particular who bring school Chromebooks home. I have just sent a separate email to the primary contact in Schooltool for students in grades 5-12* with details about the Parent Portal in Deledao, our Chromebook filtering program. Deledao allows you to see student activity on their Chromebook when they are at home and to turn off the Wi-Fi on the device during set hours. This helps ensure students are getting a break from screens.
*A quick note on devices: While the Parent Portal details were sent to grades 5-12, only students in grades 7-12 consistently bring them home. Sixth-grade students bring devices home only on an as-needed basis, and the 5th-grade team will notify parents if they decide to allow devices to go home this year.
We also have a number of resources related to parent controls on social media apps available on our website under the Families tab.
If you did not receive an email invitation to Deledao please reach out to me:
