Empower Your School District with Engaging Live Events on Digital Safety & Citizenship
At SmartSocial, our live events are designed to provide school district partners with engaging and informative sessions on social media safety and digital citizenship.
These 1-hour deep dive events feature 3-4 guest experts, 3-4 student interviews, and a live Q&A session with Josh, ensuring that no parent leaves without having their questions answered. Our events have a personalized feel, especially when hosted live in-person on a school district campus for parents to attend
For our school district partners, we offer the flexibility to host live in-person screenings on campus, share the Zoom link for remote participation, or provide access to replays for parents who can't attend live. This enables districts to effectively reach and engage with their community, while empowering parents and students with the knowledge and tools to navigate the digital world safely and responsibly.
If you're not yet a customer or partner of our education company, we invite you to explore our offerings and see how our live events can benefit your school district. By partnering with SmartSocial, you can provide your community with valuable resources and support, creating a positive and safe online environment for students and parents alike.
