Marna Strickland, an Education Coordinator for the Morgan Nick Foundation in Alma, Arkansas spoke to Prescott Elementary students today concerning online safety. The Morgan Nick Foundation focuses on protecting children. Their initiative falls into 3 categories: intervention, education, and supporting legislation that protects children and keeps them safe. One of the biggest issues they see facing our students today is the internet. Students tend to feel they are protected from the danger behind a screen in the safety of their own homes, but they are seeing horrible situations that have stemmed from teens and preteens' casual and dangerous interactions regarding internet and social media behavior. The foundation partners with The Center for Missing & Exploited Children, The Arkansas Attorney General's Office, and Arkansas Department of Education. Part of their education initiative is educating students on the internet and personal safety by providing school presentations. As they are seeing children on the internet at younger and younger ages, it is never too early to start educating children on these dangers. We appreciate the Morgan Nick Foundation for offering this educational service to our school. This is a free service that is age appropriate for grades K-12 as part of their education initiative to protect children and keep them safe from the dangers they may face in person and online.
