DAY 1 of 5

For most of us, times have changed a lot since we were children. The abundant access to technology serving as a great example. Today, students have the world at the their fingertips, and can access and interact with all sorts of wonderful resources on the internet. There's no denying that this has been a positive change, but it also comes with a whole new level of precautions as a parent.

Join us on Saturday, February 24, 2024 at Oregon City High School at our Family Focus Forum to learn more about online safety for parents of children of all ages.

The Children's Center is offering a session that will share clear information about online safety, with a focus on what parents and caregivers can do to help their kids be safe online. It will review what is known about the impact of technology on children, share strategies for maintaining safety and addressing concerns, and review resources for ongoing support and information on these topics. With this wonderful resource, you will leave feeling empowered with tools to navigate critical conversations about digital safety with their children.

Do you know about the Oregon Promise grant? The Oregon Promise is a state grant that helps cover tuition costs at any Oregon community college for recent high school graduates and GED® test graduates. Students must apply during their senior year or immediately after GED® test completion.

Come and learn more about the Oregon Promise Grant from our College and Career Coordinator, Erica Frafjord this Saturday at our Family Focus Forum. Sign up for sessions now at www.ocsd62.org/familyfocusforum
