Topics ranged from the role of artificial intelligence in social platforms to how social media is shaping the way our kids connect with others. We are thankful for our school counselor, Ms. Sabrina Mincey, for taking the time to prepare this session. 🌐 Key Takeaways: The positive side of social media: staying connected with family and friends, discovering new hobbies, and learning new skills. A candid roundtable discussion with parents and students sharing personal experiences with social media—both the good and the challenges. Thank you to all who participated and shared your valuable perspectives! Together, we can continue to support our students' well-being in this digital age. 💬💻 #SocialMedia #MentalHealth #CoffeeWithTheCounselor #CommunityConversation #MiddleSchoolMatters
