Brentwood & The Social Institute
We are excited to announce that Brentwood has partnered with The Social Institute. By locking arms with the Social Institute, we will equip students with the skills they need to navigate their social worlds, online and offline, empower student voice, and strengthen school culture.
Through a positive, student-centered approach, The Social Institute provides a gamified, online learning platform that empowers students to navigate their well-being, social media, and tech in ways that will fuel their health, happiness, and future success. Their work has been applauded by Melinda Gates and featured by Today, The Wall Street Journal, and The New York Times.
Follow The Social Institute on social media (@thesocialinst) where they post about student trends, social media, and student well-being to offer fun and informative content for students, educators, and families. You can also explore their website, where they share blogs, parent resources, and insights into student experiences.
Let’s do this!
How Your Family Can Participate:
- Continue the conversation at home: As students experience #WinAtSocial Family Huddle questions may be emailed to you by the school as a supplement to a lesson. These are completely optional to run as a family!
- Register your free account for the Parent Toolkit! Many families refer to this as the CliffsNotes of social media and technology! Go to the Toolkit, click Activate Account, and enter our school code. To receive Brentwood's school code, please email EdTech@bwscampus.com.
