| Social networking websites are fun, but they are NOT appropriate for children under the age of 13. Websites must be COPPA compliant by including a disclaimer asking that users "prove their age" by checking a small box. Because websites cannot officially verify the age of anyone "over the age of 13" this is not an appropriate way to verify the age of any user on any social networking website. Children under the age of 13 SHOULD NOT HAVE a social networking page on ANY website. If your child does have a profile on any website, St. Gall School encourages parents to actively monitor their child's actions online, including access to passwords for all sites. COPPA, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, has dedicated itself to the safety and protection of minors online for over 10 years. To learn more about COPPA, click here. |
| St. Gall School advocates the safe use of the Internet for all children. St. Gall does NOT advocate children using social networking websites. Social networking was designed for teenagers and adults, not children. We encourage parents to be responsible and monitor the activity of their children online and encourage them to visit age-appropriate websites instead. |
