Dear Students,
I am writing to respectfully make you aware of social media, and how we have to use it. We have to be careful when we post something at the internet, we have always ask ourselves some questions; how this post is going to affect our lives? Who is going to read or watch?
Sometimes bad things can happen as a result of what was posting. I read a article about Kyle Kashuv, 18, survivor of shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Portland, he had made online some racist and vituperative comments two years before his application at Harvard, because of the comments Kyle Kashuv was not accepted to study at Harvard.
Students, if you feel doubts about what to do online or what you do not post, I recommend you talk with your teacher or parents...

I share this information because it is urgent to understand that anything you can write can turn against you and have consequences in your future.
