Dear iLEAD Families,

This month, we’re focusing on a crucial topic for our learners: Digital Citizenship. The state of California observes Digital Citizenship Week from October 13–24, 2025. This annual campaign, led by Common Sense Media, is all about helping our kids develop a healthy, balanced, and positive relationship with technology and media.

The goal is to equip learners with the 21st-century skills they need to navigate the digital world safely and responsibly.

This Year’s Focus: AI is Changing Everything

The theme for this year is Artificial Intelligence (AI). As AI becomes more common in our daily lives, it’s important for families to understand the following:

  • What is AI?
  • Why does AI matter?
  • How can AI be used as a powerful learning tool at home?

We want to partner with you to help our learners thrive in a world full of new technology.

For helpful online resources, please visit Common Sense Media’s family resources page.
