CyberSafety

A collaboration of Montgomery County Public Schools, the Montgomery County State’s Attorney’s Office, and the Montgomery County Police Department.

The Internet is a fabulous resource for education, entertainment, and more. But the Internet is not regulated or controlled by any one entity. So parents and schools have a responsibility to educate children about its safe and appropriate use.

It is imperative that parents and students report unsafe incidents to law enforcement so that offenders can be apprehended and prosecuted.
