📱 In today’s digital world, it’s important to set clear, healthy boundaries around social media use for children. Helping kids manage their time online promotes healthier habits, encourages meaningful connections, and protects their well-being. Here’s why setting boundaries is essential:
✨ Improves Mental Health & Well-Being - Limiting screen time reduces exposure to negative influences, online pressure, and distractions, helping kids stay focused and emotionally balanced.
✨ Promotes Digital Responsibility - Teaching children about appropriate online behavior and privacy helps build a strong foundation for responsible digital citizenship.
Let's keep #GrowingTogether, #MVNation!


Good Morning Zitzman Families,
I sent the Chief Weekly out last Thursday evening but it does not look like very many people have viewed it so I am wondering if something happened and it was a successful send.

Reading at home with your children is one of the most powerful ways to support their learning and development. By reading together, you expose them to a wide variety of words, helping to expand their vocabulary and understanding of how language works. Make reading part of your daily routine! Even 15 minutes a day can make a huge difference. Let's inspire a love for reading as we Grow Together! 📖❤️
