Parenting in a Digital World
These tips draw on the American Academy of Pediatrics’ Family Media Plan. HealthyChildren.org
📱 Start with a conversation, Cubs!
Parenting in a digital world starts with knowing what your child enjoys online. Ask them to show you a favorite game, app, or video!
• Set family expectations for when, where, and how devices are used.
• Protect time for sleep, homework, movement, and family connection.
• Create device-free moments.
• Keep checking in as your child’s interests and needs change.
💬 Tonight’s conversation: “What do you enjoy online, and how do you feel afterward?”

🐻 Smart Cubs. Safe Clicks!
Digital Citizenship Week is October 19–23! Each day, CISD will share simple tips and resources to help families raise safe, kind, and responsible digital citizens.
We’ll cover healthy technology habits, online safety, social media etiquette, cyberbullying, and helpful parent resources. October is also Cybersecurity Awareness Month—a great time to build safer habits together!



Last week, Mrs. Puryear's Principles of Human Services students had the opportunity to explore a number of health-related careers, including physical therapy, radiology, mental health, hospice and many more, at the Bosque County Health Fair. Thank you to Mrs. Taylor at the Bosque County - Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service for coordinating our visit, and to all of the local vendors and agencies for their participation. These events help plant the seed for many students to consider a future in health and human services.


Aspiring Mathematicians' Day at Tarleton
Some of our advanced-level math students recently had the opportunity to explore math-related college and career pathways at Tarleton State University in Stephenville! They ran into a few Clifton alumni along the way, and even one who teaches math at Tarleton!

#TeamCISD remembers and honors this Patriot Day.
Twenty-five years ago, our nation was forever changed. Each September 11, our country observes Patriot Day, a national day of remembrance honoring the nearly 3,000 lives lost in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 and recognizing the courage and sacrifice of first responders and all those who answered the call to serve.
Today, Clifton ISD joins communities across our nation in remembering those we lost, honoring those who served and reflecting on the courage, service and compassion shown in the days that followed.
As we teach the next generation the significance of September 11, may we continue to honor its legacy by caring for one another, serving others and remembering the importance of being great together.
