Pinellas County Schools, in collaboration with USF St. Pete., hosted the Superintendent’s Student Leadership Summit today for elementary schoolers. They came together to sharpen their leadership skills, collaborate as teams, and unleash their creativity to drive positive change in their schools. 👏 Michael Andrews, Joshua Cherry, Juniper Riggins and Khaliya Whitfield represented us well at Leadership Summit! We can’t wait to see how they’ll implement what they learned at our school.

You probably wouldn't leave your child's bedroom window wide open or your doors unlocked and risk letting in someone with bad intent. So why would you leave them open to malicious actions in their digital world?

Kids spend hours every day on their devices, using social media, playing games, and possibly chatting with AI bots. That opens them up to all kinds of trouble including bullying, harassment, and exploitation.

To help protect Pinellas County kids, the Juvenile Welfare Board of Pinellas County has partnered with the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office, other local law enforcement agencies, and Pinellas County Schools to bring families a FREE subscription to Parent ProTech.

What is Parent ProTech?

Parent ProTech helps parents and caregivers navigate the world of technology with:

- Content and resources about keeping kids safe online
- Videos on topics like AI chatbots, online predators, and social media platforms
- Information on parental controls and the latest trends
- A K-12 curriculum for educators

This subscription normally costs $4.99 a month, but through this partnership, it's completely FREE for Pinellas County families.
