What is GoGuardian?
GoGuardian is the platform WISH uses to improve the safety of our school by filtering and monitoring the online activity of our students. This includes tools for teachers to monitor and direct student activity during classes to help them stay focused, 24/7 school-wide filters to block inappropriate and time-wasting websites, as well as several levels of alerts for staff to respond to concerning online activity, including self-harm, that may require urgent or immediate intervention. Please take a look at GoGuardian's website for more information.
GoGuardian offers the GoGuardian Parent app for families of students.
