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?”

Build your family’s plan:

A close-up photograph of a person's hand holding a three-dimensional paper cube project in a classroom setting. The visible sides of the cube showcase different art concepts drawn with markers. One side features a blue background displaying a vertical spectrum of color bars labeled "red," "orange," "yellow," "green," "blue," and "purple," along with two smaller color-combination squares at the top. The adjacent side is colored green and displays the word "LINE" at the top in large, black block letters, with examples of different line styles drawn below it. In the background, classroom elements such as windows, desks, stacks of other student art cubes, and a "COLOR FORMULA" educational poster are visible.
• A close-up photograph of a person's hand holding a paper cube project, showing two different faces from the previous angle. The right face is labeled "SPACE" at the top in large blue block letters, featuring a drawing of a checkered hallway using one-point perspective to create depth. The left face is colored with a pink-to-red gradient background and features the word "VALUE" written in bold, stylized black block letters. The background shows a classroom setting with blurred stacks of other paper cubes.
•  A high-angle photograph of a paper art cube resting on a wooden desk. The front-left face features a smooth red gradient that fades to white in the center, labeled "VALUE" in small print at the top left. The front-right face features a green landscape drawing of a river winding through small triangular trees. The top face shows a pattern of wavy, pink-striped lines alongside straight, parallel blue lines. Other student art cubes are lined up in the background.
• A photograph of the same paper cube from a slightly rotated perspective on the wooden desk. The main face in view features a hand-drawn color wheel labeled "COLOR" at the top, displaying primary and secondary colors in a ring around a star geometric pattern. The red "VALUE" gradient face is visible on the right side. The top face displays geometric forms and organic shapes in soft pink and beige colored pencils.

• A photograph of the same cube from Image 5, rotated to show different sides. The top face features a one-point perspective drawing of a checkered floor hallway under the label "SPACE." The left face shows a bold, multi-colored section with triangular blocks of color. The right face, labeled "COLOR," is partially visible.
• A photograph of the cube from Image 5 and 6, rotated to showcase the "SHAPE/FORM" face on top. It contains pencil drawings of 2D shapes (square, circle) and their 3D form counterparts (cube, cylinder, pyramid, sphere). The front face features a shaded drawing of an apple against a patterned background under the label "VALUE."
• A photograph of a different paper art cube resting on a dark black tabletop. The top face features a dense, multi-colored spiral drawing in blue, purple, and black colored pencils, labeled "Line." The left face shows drawings of flowers labeled "Shape/Form," and the right face features a pink-to-yellow gradient labeled "Value."
•  A close-up photograph looking down at a paper art cube decorated entirely with a black-and-white graphite pencil drawing. The top face features a detailed birds-eye view of a city street with cars, buildings, and sidewalks, labeled "Space" at the bottom. Other colorful art cubes sit on the wooden desk in the background.

#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.
