Digital Citizenship tip of the week:   Connected culture can be positive or negative--it is what we make it.  When guiding our students, it is important for them to understand that they have a choice in all of their online relationships.   Encouraging students to make the online culture at Westview a supportive, kind, and intellectually safe place will empower them to be good digital citizens.
