OVERVIEW

 

Now, more than ever before, Digital Citizenship for students is paramount in education. All Orange Unified schools are working towards becoming certified as a Common Sense School. Earning the Common Sense School badge is a symbol of our school's dedication to helping students think critically and use technology responsibly to learn, create, and participate.

All students in Orange Unified are guided through a minimum of three (3) Digital Citizenship Lessons utilizing the Common Sense Curriculum. Parents are welcome to view these lessons through the Educational Technology website, direct link here.
