Being a Responsible Digital Citizen

Digital citizenship means using technology and the internet responsibly and safely. The internet is a powerful tool for learning, but it also has risks like cyberbullying, online predators, and misinformation.

Online Safety Rules

Never share your full name, address, school name, or phone number with strangers online. Use strong passwords. Think before you post — once something is online, it can be there forever. Be kind online. Tell an adult if something online makes you uncomfortable.

Not everything you read online is true. Check information from trusted sources. Balance screen time with outdoor activities.
