This year the youth congress will focus on recognizing and responding to cyberbullying. The event is open to educators and students from public, parochial and private schools grades 7-12. The event is free, but you must register on a first-come, first-served basis. The program runs from 7:30am until 1:00pm and registration ends on March 7th.

The students and parents of the EMily A. Fifield School had a terrific time during our Cyber-Safety Night. The interactive presentations and fun games have helped to educate all about the importance of knowing and understanding cyber safety. The students are still talking about the movie and how much fun they had playing the internet safety game with the "clickers." THe Fiifeld community can't wait to see what is developed next by our Cyber-Safety Friends.
