Help Guide Children to be Safe and Smart "Digital Citizens"

Help Guide Children to be Safe and Smart "Digital Citizens"

District 64 invites all parents and adult members of the community to explore how we can better guide our children to become safe and smart digital citizens.

“Internet Safety in the 21st Century” is the focus for the Tuesday, October 13 Parent University event from 7:00-8:00 pm at Emerson Middle School, 8101 N. Cumberland, Niles. This free program is geared towards parents of students in grades 3-8.

Come learn about District 64’s Internet Safety curriculum and how you can discuss with your child aspects of being safe on the Internet. We'll tour some basic social networking sites, and point out the safety/privacy settings available to users and parents. This session also will provide guidance in monitoring your child's personal media activities and setting up guidelines on Web presence. Bring your questions and share strategies and ideas.

District 64 Instructional Technology Coaches Kara Pottinger (Emerson) and Beth Rihtar (Field) will facilitate the interactive program.
