Be Internet Safe
The Illinois State Board of Education would like to recommend that districts offer Internet Safety curriculum to their students.
Internet Safety Act
According to the Illinois School Code 105 ILCS 5/27-13.3 ( c ) “School Districts may adopt an age appropriate curriculum for Internet safety instruction to students in grades kindergarten through 12. It is hereby recommended that the curriculum provide for a minimum of 2 hours of Internet safety education each school year that includes instruction on 7 topics…” http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/publicacts/fulltext.asp?Name=095-0509
Internet Safety Best Practices
Many districts in the state are offering Internet Safety curriculum and activities for their students. Illinois State Board of Education encourages school districts to send us your best practices in Internet Safety.
Some of the best practices will be posted on our website for other school districts to view. Please send your information in Microsoft Office or Adobe Acrobat format to Marci Johnson at marjohns@isbe.net.
