Plugged in Parents: Cyberbullying and Digital Drama

Due to COVID-19, kids are spending more time than ever online so it is a good time to reinforce expectations regarding safety and how to treat others with kindness and respect when communicating from behind a screen. This presentation is typically presented in person by the Orange County Department of Education through funding from the Orange County Health Care Agency to provide Violence Prevention Education services to families, students, and educators throughout Orange County. The presentation was developed using curriculum from Common Sense Education and consists of three brief modules: What is Cyberbullying, What Do I Need to Look Out for as a Parent, and How Can I Help My Child With Preventing and Dealing With Cyberbullying?
