Parents,

Announcements

• We hope to see many of you tonight at 6:30 for Ben Tracy’s “Navigating Life in the Digital Age” presentation in the JPII. Ben's presentation is rooted in his own powerful story of losing a great job as an adult due to inappropriate social media posts he made as a teenager. We hope you can join us tonight as Ben discusses cyberbullying, inappropriate phots, popular social media apps, and practical strategies for keeping kids safe online.
