Protecting Young Eyes Presentation at St. Lorenz Lutheran School in Frankenmuth
Swan Valley School District has hosted Chris McKenna several times in the past three years. He has spoken to our parents, our students and teachers about internet safety. Chris will be in Frankenmuth on September 30th. We strongly recommend all parents attend this presentation. The information that Protecting Young Eyes provides is invaluable to parents who are attempting to monitor their children’s behavior online. If you are not able to attend the PYE session please take some time to check out the free resources available to parents on the Protecting Young Eyes ( https://protectyoungeyes.com/ ) website.
We support Chris and his mission to protect young people online!

How to Create a Tech-Ready Home: Embracing the Tension between Careful, Countercultural, and Confident (Parents and Caring Adults Only)
Although it’s not possible to create an internet-safe home, it is possible to create one that is internet SAFER. After well over a thousand presentations to parents, grandparents, and caregivers just like you, and countless conversations, we’ve observed what it takes to have kids learn to use technology well. And we call it the PYE Core Values. This presentation breaks down these 5 foundational ideas.
• Do you know what’s better than any parental control?
• Do you know why your router is the most important digital device in your home?
• Do you understand the toxic trio?
• Do you know why TikTok is so intoxicating to young brains?
• Get ready for a ton of practical tips, solutions, and ideas you can implement.
For those of you who did not take part in our Summer Learning Calendar, there is still time to check out the Healthy Body Heathy Minds recipes. Try the Ranch Corn Salad.
