Mountaineers Learn about Digital Citizenship

Middle school and high school students participated in assemblies with Ben Tracy and learned valuable information about social media apps, how social media impacts mental health, cyberbullying, identifying online predators, and more. Parents were invited to an evening session. Students were very engaged with the presentation. They appreciated his personal testimony about learning how important everything they post online is and the ramifications that just one post can have on employment. Students valued the tips he gave for how to remain safe on specific apps and pointed to specific dangers to young people through cell phones.
