Participants can win great prizes just for reading, including free tickets to local attractions, gift cards, and even a College Choice 529 scholarship!
Romine's Roundup
Cyber safety
There has been an increase in conversations about shows our students are watching. We want to take this opportunity to remind parents about Cyber safety! We encourage parents to be aware of what their kids are watching, and talk to your children about what they are seeing. You can also have discussions with friends, family, neighbors, and church/community leaders about what their kids are watching, what apps they are using, and what to watch for. Here are some additional resources to help assist with this!

Media ratings and safety
For movies and TV shows, here are some of the ratings and what they mean.
G (general audience) is intended for all ages.
PG (parental guidance) is media that requires parent guidance due to some factors not being suitable for children.
PG-13 Is media that parents strongly cautioned, and is intended for ages 13 years or older.
R is restricted to anyone under 17 and requires an accompanying adult due to the adult materials in the film (harsh language, violence, nudity, etc)
For video games, the ratings slightly differ. Here are the ratings:
E (Everyone) the game is intended for all ages.
T (Teen) the game is intended for those 13 and up.
M (Mature) the game is for audiences 17 and older due to adult content.
