GoGuardian Parent

The GoGuardian Parent was created to help provide additional educational support to administrators and teachers by allowing parents to see what sites and documents their children are browsing and providing parents with additional internet controls at home. 

The app gives parents a bird's eye view of the apps and websites that their kids are on most often and control over school-issued devices during out-of-school hours. With this information, parents can be made aware of what types of browsing behavior Washingtonville is seeing from students so everyone can better work together to encourage more effective internet browsing habits at home and at school.
 

By providing insight and controls over student browsing activity, the goal is to empower parents to take a more active role in their children's online learning. As part of this, we want to offer a greater sense of transparency with student browsing. We believe this will help bring a greater sense of accountability on both the parent's and the student's part.  Additionally, we are hopeful that transparency and insight will increase the likelihood of productive student browsing habits on a more consistent basis.
