MORENO VALLEY>> Common Sense Education, the national nonprofit organization dedicated to helping kids and families thrive in a world of digital media and technology, has recognized March Middle School as a Common Sense Certified School: Digital Citizenship. The recognition means March Middle School has demonstrated its commitment to taking a whole-community approach to preparing its students to use the immense power of digital media to explore, create, connect and learn, while limiting the perils that exist in the online realm, such as plagiarism, loss of privacy and cyberbullying. "We applaud March Middle School for embracing digital citizenship as an important part of their students' education," said Val Verde Unified School District Superintendent Michael R. McCormick. "March Middle School deserves high praise for giving its students the foundational skills they need to compete and succeed in the 21st-century workplace and participate ethically in society at large, and for encouraging their students to be Future Ready." March Middle School has been using Common Sense Education's innovative and research-based digital citizenship resources, which were created in collaboration with Dr. Howard Gardner of the GoodPlay Project at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. The resources teach students, educators, and parents tangible skills related to Internet safety, protecting online reputation personal privacy, managing online relationships, and respecting creative copyright. The free resources are currently used in more than 90,000 classrooms nationwide. "We're honored to be recognized as a Common Sense Digital Citizenship Certified School," said Jim Owen, March Middle School Principal. "By preparing our students to use technology safely and responsibly, we are providing them unlimited opportunities to maximize and personalize their learning. Our students found the lessons fun and informative.” For more information about Common Sense Education, visit https://www.commonsensemedia.org
