Social Media Safety and Digital Citizenship

We are excited to announce that Bobby Truhe, a school attorney, will be back in York on Monday, October 24th for a 6:00-6:45 PM presentation for parents and adults on "social media issues and digital citizenship."

Bobby put on a presentation for our 5th-12th graders earlier this fall where he went over the potential pitfalls and legalities dealing with social media threats, bullying, etc. We feel it is very important for our young people to be constantly reminded how important it is that they exercise good judgment when using social media. Facebook, Snapchat, Twitter, Instagram, and others can all be extremely fun, educational, and safe. However, they can all be horribly difficult, divisive, and outright dangerous as well. It depends on how they're used.

This special presentation for parents and adults will be in the YHS cafeteria. Everyone is invited.

YHS will also host a YMS/YHS choir concert that same evening at 7:00 PM.

We hope to see lots of parents and adults at both activities at YHS on October 24th.

Please help spread the word.
