Empowering Students Online: Importance of Internet Safety in Schools

This resource underscores the critical role of integrating Internet safety in school curriculums to equip students with necessary skills for responsible online behavior. By emphasizing the significance of this subject, educators, administrators, parents, and students can collectively foster a safer digital environment. The 2006 General Assembly legislation mandate serves as a catalyst for this initiative. Relevant resources and tools, such as NetSmartz Kids, CyberSmart lessons, and VDOE instructional alignment, are provided to support comprehensive Internet safety education. Let's prioritize Internet safety to facilitate positive and secure web navigation among students.
