During a week long celebration of children's literature, several classrooms at Midway Middle School showed

Cyber-Safety Tips

Students are digitally connected many of their waking hours. Mobile devices, laptops, and desktops are in their homes and classrooms. It is important students understand the responsibility placed on them to be productive, ethical, and safe citizens of this worldwide community. The goal of the Cyber-Safety Tips Project is to provide students in grades kindergarten through twelfth grade with a weekly tip to be shared during the school news program. The tips will promote safe and ethical use of the Internet.
