         The Florida Attorney General’s Office, the Florida Department of Education and the

Florida Association of District School Superintendents have recently formed a partnership to better

assist you in educating your students about staying safe on the internet.  As part of this partnership,

we issued a statewide CyberSafety Challenge that calls on Florida’s middle and high school

principals to sign their schools up for the Attorney General’s CyberSafety Education presentations.

 

         Two challenge winners will be announced in May – the first district to sign up the largest

total number of schools for presentations and the first district to sign up the highest percentage of its

schools for presentations.  The winners of the CyberSafety Challenge will receive special

CyberSafety presentations hosted in person by Attorney General McCollum and Education

Commissioner Eric Smith.

 

  The concept is simple and fun, but the underlying message is one of the most important lessons

we can teach our young people - how to protect themselves from internet child predators.  By

challenging you to sign up your students to receive a 50-minute CyberSafety Education

presentation before the school year ends, we hope to ensure as many children as possible have the

tools they need to stay safe online.

 

  Please log onto the specially-designed website at http://www.safeflorida.net/safeschools to

register your schools to receive the Attorney General’s cybersafety presentation, and then sign up

for presentations at a time that works with your schedule.    Good luck to your school district as you

participate in the CyberSafety Challenge!
