Cyber Safety and Social Media

While teachers and staff members are continually working with students to teach, promote and model appropriate use of social media and electronic devices, there are targeted sessions that we provide students on a yearly basis. These include: 

1. A visit to each class from the Winnipeg Police Service Education Officer to discuss cyber safety. 

2. A visit to each class from a school administrator to discuss and answer student questions regarding the Pembina Trails School Division Electronic Communication Devices Policy and how it might impact them, in particular, if their phone has to be confiscated for violating school/divisional policies.

3. The Winnipeg Police Service Education Officer also offers a parent information session to share information on social media and cyber safety. In addition to this, we also recognize the importance of providing adults with some suggested resources in helping them to navigate the waters when dealing with these issues.
