Join Us for "Screenagers: Elementary School Age Edition" on March 25 at Lenape. Are you watching kids become too accustomed to using technology at too young an age? Physician and filmmaker Delaney Ruston saw this happening with her kids and wondered about the impact and the friction occurring in homes and schools around negotiating screen time. The result is "Screenagers: Elementary School Age Edition."
On Tuesday, March 25 at 7 p.m. in the Lenape Middle School auditorium, parents, guardians, and caregivers are invited to a screening of the film, which will kick off a CBSD series on digital wellness. "Screenagers: Elementary School Age Edition" is a version of the original "Screenagers" movie and addresses issues that elementary school aged kids, parents and educators are facing, such as smartwatches in class, unhooking from and monitoring video gaming, social media pressures, exposure too young, and what research shows is a healthy amount of screen time. Solutions are also offered.
No pre-registration is required. This event is for parents, guardians and caregivers only. There will be no child care available.
Learn the latest about options for the capital needs at Doyle, Kutz and Linden Elementary schools and share your feedback with district leadership at the third town hall meeting on the subject on Thursday, March 27th at 7 p.m. at CB South. No pre-registration is required. Learn more and submit comments or questions.
