The 2019 Indiana Library Federation Annual Conference was a success! This year’s theme: “Libraries Welcome All” is fitting for what we do. We were able to learn from and be inspired by authors Jason Reynolds, Lynn Plourde,
Meg Medina, Emmy Laybourne, and Indiana’s poet laureate Adrian Matejka. We attended breakout sessions on our library management system, book awards, intellectual freedom, social media, and much more. In future newsletters,
we’ll be sharing more specifics of what we learned. Stay tuned!

Dear Parent/Guardian: It is hard to believe that the Christmas Season is drawing near! The United Christmas Service (UCS) is no longer providing assistance to families and children in need, however, MVCSC is working with many community partner to try and offer support to our families this holiday season. If you are a family who may need a referral for holiday assistance, please contact Krista Weber, FES School Counselor at 317-485-3180 x4225 or [email protected] for an application. All completed applications must be entered by WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2019. If you have multiple children in different MVCSC schools, please fill out only ONE application and return it to the school of the youngest child. It is imperative that ALL applications be received at FES by WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2019. Support may be more limited this year, so turning in your application early is the best way to ensure assistance. Please contact me with any questions you might have. Thank you!

Grades K–5 Family Tips
Help Kids Balance Their Media Lives From phones and tablets to streaming movies and YouTube, tech and media are everywhere. Kids
love easy access to shows, games, and information. Parents and caregivers love that kids can learn
on the go (and stay busy when dinner's cooking). But it's easy to overdo it when the phone never
stops pinging and the next episode plays automatically. Families can keep media and tech use in
check by following a few simple practices.
Check out these 5 tips
Create screen-free times and zones. Help kids take breaks from tech by limiting screen time in bedrooms, during study time, or at the
dinner table.
Try parental controls. Set content limits that make sense for your family. Alongside conversations about healthy media
habits, use features such as content filtering, privacy settings, and time limits offered by the apps and
platforms your family uses to help manage access and exposure to media.
Establish clear family rules. Decide together what kind of media and tech is OK -- and when it's OK to use it. A family media plan
can help get everyone on the same page.
Watch and play together. Choose quality, age-appropriate media to enjoy with your kids. Visit commonsensemedia.org to find
shows, games, and more.
Help kids identify healthy behaviors. Practice talking about feelings -- both physical and emotional -- during screen and non-screen
activities.
