I think social media is a great way to communicate with your friends. However, you have to be careful because once you put something online, you have no control over it.

I think social media is good in some ways aand bad in some ways. It is good because you can talk to people you haven't seen in a while. It is also bad because you don't always know who the person behind the computer you are talking to is who they say they are.

I think social media is good and bad. In a good way you can talk on a class blog like I do in one of my classes. It's also bad in alot of ways like say you don't have a class blog and you just go on Twitter,Instagram,or Facebook there could be a person stalking your acount. Then you start talking to them and then meet them it's scarry when you don't know who your really talking to.So there are some great thing and some bad things about being online.-SM

Social media can be harmful. There are people out there that post things on blogs to get attenion. So when people don't get attention, they're gonna do anything just to get it. Watch out what you put out there. Be positive!

I thnk social media is good and scary at the same time. The reason i think it is scary is because people post stuuf abou that is not even true then sometimes it becomes a chain reaction. I also think it is good because it gives you a chance to post something positive and that makes you feel good or another person feel good. G.G4

I think social media should be used but only allowing things like pictures and all comments should be sent through a filter program that detects all bad words and stops the comment from being published. This won't stop all cyber bullying but it will take aout the use of bad words.

I think social media is good because, you get to think,do, and say what you want to, but kids don't think twice like they should... my motto to do the right thing is: "There is a time and place for everything, but now is not the time".

People need to be cautious about what they say to others because it could hurt their feelings. They dont need to post pictures they wouldnt want others to see. They shouldnt accept people they dont know or post personal information. You can say all these things a million times to kids all around the world but does that mean they will make the "right" choice? Ehh, probably not because usually someone feels obligated to do something or say something back to their cyberbully or bully because they want them too feel bad to but kids just need to realize words hurt. Think before you speak, act, type, or do. Treat others the way you want to be treated or kill them with kindness because being a bully or a cyberbully is awful and you dont want or need to be labeled as that kind of person. ~S.B.G~ 4th period. <3

I like the idea of getting a text when school is closed or delayed, but I don't think schools should use social media other than showing kids what not to do online. Having a class for kids who need that kind of direction makes sense. If their parents decide they need to be taught how to handle themselves socially online, then they can sign them up for the class.

I think social media can either help people or hurt people. Many people use it incorrectly and people often end up being hurt. If people use social media in the right way, things will not be bad and people will not get hurt. People should think before they post something. You never know who could see it. We should always be careful before we say or post anything online. Once you press send, you can't take it back. So, think before you post. You never know who it could affect in a negative way. Keep social media positive! -C.C-4th

I really think cyberbulllying is a big problem that should just be banned. Like, if you post a bad comment, you should be banned from that social media place permanatly. I can't understand why people would do something that unproductive. I mean, seriously, get this cool new thing bullies. It's called A LIFE.

Social media is good for certain people, People that are responsilbe. Sompe people can not handle social media and do not diserve to be on it. People use bad language and threats on these kind og websites.. I believe if you are are not responsible and post nice and appropriate things you do not need to be on any social media whatsoever.

Well Mrs.Hughes it was very intellegent to tell us about cyberbulling.Why, is because some people are out here doing the same thing does not even realize it it is very shameful fo people to be starting romars online but anyways good job . MDW

Social media can be good or bad, it's your choice to make. You can be responsible or reckless. I reccomend responsible, because it is definitely the safer route. Don't give out information of any kind, no matter how small. Whether it be gender, name, where you live, or anything else that could give hints at who you are. Remember that just because nothing has happened to you yet, it doesn't mean that it can't. -K.D. 5th Period

I think social media can be good or bad, depending on how its used. People are more harsh and mean online than they are in the real world. People think that its okay to say something online and not say it in person. It hurts just as bad, if not worse online. Not all social media is bad. You can use it for good and to say nice things to people. But you need to be careful online. You can get in serious trouble. RH5

I think that social media can be very dangerous if you don't use it correctly. Stuff like facebook and instagram and twitter is pretty cool,but cyberbullying isn't. You shouldn't cyberbully or bully at all. I've never been cyberbullied, but I can say that it probably isn't great. So, think about things before you post it, because you don,t know who it can hurt. Treat people online how you want to be treated. A.J.-5

i think social media can do mulitple things to hurt and help. either way you need to be careful about what you post because it can not only lead to a fight or hate but it can lead to death. at my church a girl gave her testimony and and said she was going through depression but her friend was trying to commit suicide. yall needf to relize that words hurt. also be careful to who you talk to over social media. and always know there are people to comfort and help you threw these times
