    Congratulations in advocating what we have to accept is now – the “Way of Life”. Join in and learn. We need training for our teachers and for our students’ parents. These groups are intimidated by the hype of possible online bullying and allowing students to explore the unknown. I understand their is a risk, but their are too many advantages. We have to teach our kids right from wrong. It is our duty and responsibility. To turn our heads and say no you cannot have an instagram account is opening doors to defiance.
    As a mother of 4 beautiful young daughters, and an Assistant Principal, I feel it is our duty to learn what we can so we can not only monitor our students/kids access to social networking but help they learn the tools that can help them in today’s society. They will have the chance – yes freedom to express themselves but in the same breath educate themselves about the world around us.

    I have a facebook account, instagram account, follow several Blog sites and twitter account…my husband no, but he is not the educator. You have to get uncomfortable to get comfortable. Join me as this is not going away.

    As a former editor of the Spokesman, MSU Alum, and current teacher in PGCPS, I am proud of my friend and colleague Will Blake. He is a trendsetter in every sense of the word and his work will eventually lead schools and school districts to achieve highly. His work with social media and how he reaches out to students is something that current teachers should take note of.
