I've also just received two new books at the library called:

1. Get Connected: Tech Programs for Teens, by RoseMary Honnold for the Young Adult Library Services Association
2. Totally Wired: What Teens and Tweens are REALLY Doing Online, by Anastasia Goodstein

I will bring them to the next meeting to share with all.

Kansas Association of School Boards is just beginning to look at this issue.  They are not aware of any other districts that are researching the topic like we are.  Their suggestion at this time is to use current policies on "harassment and disruption of school" to address any issues that come up.

 

We are just starting to visit with other districts on how they are treating this issue.
