Keeping Kids Safe

Our Technology class participated in a Keep Kids Safe Initiative where they learned about Internet Safety. Part of the program was playing a game called "Missing" where the students learned about a 14 year old boy who was talking to someone online and the game quickly became a scavenger hunt to find the missing boy. This program is based on a true story. All of the students enjoyed the program and used their knowledge to write a melo-drama to teach younger students, in elementary school about internet safety. A select group of 8th graders wrote a script, performed as actresses, directed eachother, and edited the video to show the Elementary students what could happen if you talk to strangers online. The students also showed the video to over 70 parents who attended our monthly Coffee with the Principal. The parents were happy to see that our students were being educated on internet safety. Our Faculty has also requested to see the video.
