Westhampton Beach is a district that has been ahead of the curve for over 5 years. After reading the article  "Making the Case for Social Media in Education" I believe that we need to lift or get rid of the way we filter what our students look at. By preventing our student from using social media as an education tool is hindering the learning process. Social media can and should be another tool that our students can use in the education process. However our school district and others need to develop more current ways to monitor student use. This can be a very powerful tool if used correctly. I welcome your thoughts.
