Social Media Guidelines<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. SOCIAL MEDIA: We are seeing an uptick in digital communication and many schools and staff creating new social media accounts. Quick reminder that staff members who wish to create a professional social media account need to check in with Alandra Johnson. She has some important guidelines and tips to share about using social media while representing our schools. Send an email to Alandra.johnson@bend.k12.or.us<\/a> (She is also glad to hear from those who have already created accounts and now want to make them official.)<\/li>\n
  2. RESOURCES FOR FAMILIES: When sharing community resources with families, be sure to use our district pages, which are updated, vetted and approved (many are also translated):<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Student Mental Health<\/a>
