Digital Citizenship

Digital Citizenship at Harborfields

One of the biggest challenges today is keeping our children safe online. To help all schools address age-appropriate issues with the Internet and the use of cell phones and other mobile devices, Harborfields will be using the comprehensive curriculum from Common Sense Media. This will help ensure that all students are equipped with the skills and habits to use technology productively. This is taught through our Library program in grades K-5. Our secondary Library Media Specialists will work with our teachers to infuse these resources into the classroom environment.
