Protecting children from predators is one of my top priorities. Predators today typically use the Internet to befriend, seduce, and ultimately harm children. Putting these criminals behind bars is not enough; we must also proactively combat the problem by educating children and adults. The Michigan Cyber Safety Initiative (Michigan CSI) is an Internet safety education program with customized presentations for kindergarten through eighth-grade students and a community seminar. They have invited all public school district superintendents, intermediate school district superintendents, Michigan Dioceses, Homeschooling Michigan members, Michigan Association of Non-Public Schools members, and Michigan Association of Public School Academies members to participate in the Michigan CSI program during the 2008-2009 school year. Registrations are now being accepted. Encourage your school to become a leader in cyber safety education and to submit a Michigan CSI registration form as soon as possible. We had them into are school and it was a very good presentation by them for the children of are school.
