Internet Safety Strategies for Students and Parents

•  Place a home computer in an area where students can be easily monitored.

•  Caution students about giving out personal information.

•  Check websites your student visits by viewing the history, usually via a button located on the menu or tool bar.

•  Utilize parental control software that is installed on your computer system or often available from your internet service provider.

•  Research internet safety websites such as:  isafe.org; safekids.com; safeteens.com or netsmartz.org.
