Dear Parents/Guardians,
Unionville-Sebewaing Area Schools uses Bark for Schools (https://www.bark.us/schools) to help us monitor school-issued accounts for signs of
digital dangers. When potential issues like cyberbullying, suicidal ideation, and threats of violence arise, Bark sends us
a notification. Parents and guardians can benefit from receiving these alerts, as well.
Get Alerts With the Free Parent Portal
Kids use their school-issued accounts both at school and at home, and families are often in a better position to
respond to urgent alerts after hours, on weekends, and during breaks. These are times when administration may not
be available in the event of an emergency. Please request and account by emailing usatechteam@think-usa.org and
then in the coming days, you will receive an invitation to create your free account for the Bark for Schools Parent
Portal. As soon as you opt in, you’ll start receiving after-hours alerts when Bark detects potentially time-sensitive
issues.
Monitor Texts, Social Media, and More
Bark for Schools is free for both our school and for you. For even greater coverage, you can also sign up for Bark for
Families, which monitors texts, chat, email, YouTube, and 30+ social media platforms for potential safety concerns.
You can find out more about how Bark works here.

If you have any questions, please contact us by replying to this email. Thank you for your support as we strive to help
keep our students safe both online and in real life.
Best wishes,
The USA Tech Team

Dear Patriot Parents,
We have great news this afternoon! There was a decrease in the number of students placed into quarantine this week. We also have some students who were out of school returning on Monday. As a result, grades 6-12 will return to school for in-person instruction next week.
We look forward to greeting our high school and middle school students as they return on Monday morning!
GO PATRIOTS!
Educationally yours,
George Rierson
Superintendent
