NALOPKTKPC About Cyber Activities is Coming to an End at FCSInternet Lingo Translation:
Not a lot of people know that keeping parents clueless about cyber activities is coming to an end at Fruitport Community Schools. Since 2003, the Attorney General’s office has arrested more than 150 adults who were seeking to harm children by first befriending them online. To help keep our students safe, Fruitport Community Schools has joined forces with the Michigan Attorney General’s Office, the Muskegon County Child Abuse Council, the Fruitport Township Police Department, the Muskegon County Sheriff’s Department, the Ottawa County Sheriff’s Department, the Michigan State Police, the Muskegon County Prosecutor's Office, and Pathways MI to help educate our parents on the Michigan Cyber Safety Initiative. MI CSI Community Seminar for AdultsOn Tuesday, September 28th, you are invited to attend a free one-hour Internet safety seminar for adults.

Information on how to: access the MI Sex Offender Registry, search for and access your child's social networking site (My Space, Facebook), view Internet history logs, and modify computer settings for safer Internet surfing will be provided.
