Internet Use

Safety Issues

When you and your family surf the Web it’s important to

keep the following in mind:• Online information is usually

not private.

• People online are not always who they say they are.

• Anyone can put information online.

• You can’t trust everything you read online.

Are you addicted to the internet?

Look for symptoms of Internet dependency.

Ask yourself if your Internet use is affecting your school performance, health, and relationships with family and friends.

Using Internet communication tools such as chat rooms, e-mail, and instant messaging can put

you at potential risk of encountering online predators.

External chat rooms are prohibited.

Online predators try to gradually seduce their targets through

attention, affection, kindness, and even gifts, and often devote

considerable time, money, and energy to this effort.
