Parents go to great measure to protect their children from the dangers of social media by buying and implementing privacy programs, limiting their time on the internet, requesting they not post their locations, schools and full names. TEXAS ISD’s are working to place IPAD’s and other online devices in their students hand. With the utilization of social media in the classroom and the fact that school administrators and teachers are now posting photos of their students and classrooms online, your child’s safety is at risk. I was scanning twitter and facebook this week and was shocked to find photos of kids posted by school administrations. One with malicious intent does not have the search long to locate students school, location and sometimes their name.
Below are a few of the photos I found this week on social media. Parents need to wake up to what their local school districts are doing!
