August 24, 2023
On Aug. 15, school attorney Sara Hento held an assembly on digital citizenship and the legal ramifications of social media. The assembly was held separately for the middle and high schoolers. The assembly was scheduled to be from 1:05 p.m to 2:05 p.m for middle schoolers and 2:20 p.m to 3:20 p.m for high schoolers, each lasting around an hour. During those assemblies, Hento spoke on the importance and role of social media, its impact on the brain and the consequences of using social media inappropriately. Throughout the assembly, Hento used visuals, humor and examples of actual court cases to explain her points and engage her audience. The assembly came to a close twenty minutes early at 3 p.m, leaving our school and staff more educated and informed on the serious role social media holds in our society.
