Omaha Public Schools and the Sherwood Foundation have a 10+ year partnership with Common Sense to provide support and educational resources on digital citizenship for our students, schools, and families to promote positive experiences with media and technology in school and life.

Common Sense, a non-profit organization, is dedicated to improving the lives of kids and families by providing expert media reviews, objective advice, and helpful tools to build a more healthy, equitable, and empowering future for all kids in the digital age.

Family Tech Planners are an excellent way for kids to have a shared understanding of how your family makes the most of entertainment and tech time. Use these guides to help facilitate a conversation around technology and media use expectations in your home. How much screen time is okay? What are the screen-free zones in the house? What's a commitment everyone can make to stay safe online? Different planners are available depending on your child's age.
