Internet Safety
The Internet is valuable learning and communication tool. It is the goal of MCPS to ensure that our students can use the Internet in a safe and effective way. To achieve this goal MCPS staff has compiled resources that will allow teachers, and parents to teach students how to avoid the dangers of cyberspace while effectively harnessing its power.
