Some Union County School Districts Aim To Educate Parents On New Technology Trends

Every new social app on your child’s smartphone brings with it new opportunities to connect with friends, as well as foes, outside of the classroom – and don’t forget the new lingo.

This is why keeping up with current smartphone trends and relaying that information to students and parents has become a top priority in Union County school districts such as Westfield and Summit, according to nj.com.
