Dear Parents and Guardians, As technology becomes an important part of learning, we encourage you to provide appropriate supervision when your child uses iPads or laptops at home. Please ensure that devices are used in a common area where you can monitor activity. Set clear expectations for screen time, and remind your child to use school-approved apps and websites only. Regularly check their progress and discuss safe and responsible online behavior. Thank you for partnering with us to create a safe and productive learning environment for all students. Sincerely, Principal Gray
