On January 18 we hosted a Middle School 411 session at 7:30am in the media center. The topic was internet safety and the guest speaker was Deputy Sheriff Karen Mohammad with the Wake County Sheriff's Department. Attendees were given a lot of valuable information regarding how to talk to your middle school student about their behavior on the internet and cell phone, things to watch out for, and practical suggestions for making sure your student is safe. Information related to this topic can be found HERE, and we encourage parents to take a look when you have a few minutes.
