Previous Learning Opportunities for Parents

In April 2022, a panel of experts from the GBI, AT&T, Common Sense Media, FCS educators and school district leaders shared strategies and information parents can use to protect their families at home -- a timely topic since the school year is winding down and students will soon begin spending more time on their personal devices or using their home internet. Parents heard tips from each panelist followed by a Q&A session moderated by Dr. Emily Bell, FCS Chief Information Officer.
