Media and technology are at the center of children’s lives every day and District 15 is committed to supporting positive student digital experiences. District 15’s Digital Citizenship curriculum empowers students to think critically, behave safely, and participate responsibly in their digital world. These future ready skills are essential for students to harness their full learning potential. Each monthly lesson provides student-centered, media-rich materials that emphasize skill building, critical thinking, ethical discussion, media creation, and decision making to students in all grade levels. Students are also taught what to do when they see something or interact with something online, or in a text message that makes them feel uncomfortable.
