Tech Without Stress
This is a wonderful website with many very applicable things curated by two highly professional psychologists that are dedicated to the topic of technology and kids. There are MANY great blog posts that are relevant to middle school experiences.
While there are paid portions of the site that could be useful to your family (think parenting courses relating to technology) - I cannot speak to those particular aspects as I have not yet previewed them.

Common Sense Media
Your trusted guide for a fast-changing world.
"Media and technology are at the center of kids' lives every day. From a very young age, kids use technology at home and at school to connect with friends and family and to document their lives and create digital content of their own. With more and more of life happening online, what catches kids' attention isn't always what's best for them, and what companies do with their personal information isn't always clear."
