Parenting in a Digital Age Parenting in a Digital Age

Join KPS for a discussion of how technology impacts your children and your role as a parent on Tuesday, Feb. 17, 2026, from 5-7 p.m. at Milwood Magnet School, 2916 Konkle St. There will be a meal, giveaways, and great information. No registration required. I strongly encourage all families to attend if you are able.


The world has changed dramatically in the past few decades. One of the most significant shifts is the sheer volume of information available to everyone, especially children. Today’s children have unprecedented access to information that can inspire, educate, and empower them. However, this same access can also expose them to risks, such as misinformation, harmful content, and inappropriate influences. This reality makes it imperative for parents to take an active role in guiding their children through this digital landscape.

If your child has seen the dentist within the past 6 months, we can accept a letter from the dental office stating that they were seen. You will need to provide a copy of the letter to us.
