Schools schedule cyber-safety, CPR and parent trainings after student-support surge
Summary
Middle- and high-school administrators announced upcoming parent and student events — a March 16 Cyber Safety for Kids parent night, a 'Hidden in Plain Sight' parent training, staff follow-up sessions, a March 24 Senior CPR Day, and a student art exhibit — as the middle school reported hundreds of support-form submissions after a recent tragedy.
Tonasket Middle and High School administrators outlined a slate of upcoming events aimed at safety, family engagement and student support.
High School Principal Irving Smith distributed a report from THS ASB Representative Dakota Cox and described several events: a March 16 family engagement night called "Cyber Safety for Kids," which Smith said is "not for kids; it is for parents to attend and learn about the dangers online that their students face," a March 24 Senior CPR Day offering free CPR instruction for seniors, and a student art exhibit at The Confluence gallery in Twisp. Smith noted positive student behavior during the CPR training.
Middle School administrator Trisha Roach previewed a parent night titled 'Hidden in Plain Sight' that will show parents how students hide contraband and apps, and said the presenter will provide the same training to MS staff the following day. Roach also warned parents about an app she displayed in a slide, saying students should not have access to Ome TV. Roach reported that the MS has had "100s of forms turned in this year" to document student-support needs following a recent tragedy, and that caring for students was the top priority.
Administrators encouraged parents to attend the sessions and to work with school staff on monitoring and support.
