Focus on Internet Safety

By admin | April 15, 2009

Web Wise Kids is partnering with Ask.com and NASCAR in a new, youth-focused Internet safety program called Ask.com Safe Search Schools. The aim of the program is to recognize elementary schools that are teaching Internet safety. The Ask.com Safe Search Schools program is presenting schools that demonstrate an exemplary focus on teaching Internet safety with new computers, a visit from professional NASCAR driver Bobby Labonte and Web Wise Kids programs for children and parents. The program focuses on a different school district each month. In April, the program is open to schools in Richmond, Virginia. To be considered, submit a Safe Search School evaluation form outlining your school’s Internet safety programs and activities, plus an Internet lesson plan from a fifth grader proposing what students can do to educate their school community and families about Internet safety.
Deadline: Ongoing; this month’s closing date is April 22, 2009
