October is Digital Citizenship Awareness Month

During October, Homewood City Schools highlight 
Digital Citizenship. 
Going home in the student's folder is a booklet titled Net Cetera. 
This is a resource for parents to facilitate family discussion about manners and safety online. Included with the booklet is a flyer with some suggested activities. 
When your child completes at least one of the activities, 
they should bring the signed portion to the Library. 
From October 3-20, classes will be discussing smart online practices 
and we hope you will also share with your child ways they can 
be the best Digital Citizen that they can be.
