Think Before you Post

More Seaman Students Learn to “Think Before You Post”
Posted on 01/09/2026
On January 9, fifth- and sixth-grade students from all USD 345 elementary schools gathered at Seaman High School for a special presentation led by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI) titled “Think Before You Post.” Students were transported to the high school to participate in this districtwide learning opportunity focused on online safety and responsible digital behavior.

The presentation addressed a wide range of topics including digital citizenship, social media safety, online criminal activity, cyberbullying, texting and driving, online reputation, mental health, viral posting, artificial intelligence, and how everyday communication through phones can have lasting impacts. Students were encouraged to pause and think before posting or engaging online, emphasizing both safety and accountability.

This presentation was part of a broader, coordinated effort across the district. Seaman High School students heard the “Think Before You Post” presentation the day prior, and Seaman Middle School students participated in the same program before winter break. While the core message remained consistent, each presentation was designed to be age-appropriate, with content and examples tailored to the developmental level and online experiences of each audience.

Seaman Schools recognize that students come with varying levels of experience when it comes to online activity, particularly at the elementary level. Elementary administrators and teachers felt this presentation struck the right balance of introducing important concepts in a way that was accessible, relevant, and appropriate for older elementary students.

USD 345 appreciates the partnership with families in supporting student learning both in and out of school. Opportunities like this reflect a commitment to helping students develop the knowledge and skills needed to navigate the online world safely, responsibly, and thoughtfully now and in the future. Families with questions are encouraged to reach out to their school or classroom teacher for more information.
