Dear Parents,

As educators, we believe in the fundamental impact of sound instruction. Internet Safety is an area where this surely applies. When used appropriately, technology is an incredibly valuable tool for learning and collaboration. When used inappropriately, technology can be hazardous and immoral, a sin against God and neighbors. In all uses of technology, there should be a focus on safe, responsible and ethical use and an awareness of the dangers that can occur with misuse. In order to assist students in using technology appropriately, schools need to provide a solid, ongoing education in Internet Safety.

On our Internet Safety Links page there are websites that contain valuable and practical strategies for emphasizing Internet Safety, in the classroom and the home.
