Some parents of may wrestle with their children over the use of social networks. But what about harnessing the power of social media to keep parents updated on a child's progress at school? Educators at elementary schools in Council Bluffs, Iowa are encouraging the use of Facebook - to help keep parents informed about the lessons their children are learning. And the young students are participating by helping their teachers compose the status updates. Would this be a good idea for Brandon Schools?
