i-SAFE
Parents,
Beginning this month Computers will
be teaching
i-SAFE to the middle school
students of St. Ann.
I-SAFE Inc. is the leader in
Internet safety education.
The goal is to educate students
on how to avoid dangerous,
inappropriate, or
unlawful online behavior.
i-SAFE.org accomplishes
this through dynamic K-12
curriculum and community
outreach programs to parents,
law enforcement, and
community leaders.
It is the only
Internet safety foundation
to combine these elements.
Should you have any questions or concerns
email me at paul.pantano@gmail.com
