Classroom of the Week
Ms. Kolkmeyer's Computer Maintenance I Class
Internet Safety and digital citizenship are topics all students need to learn more about. The students in Ms. Kolkmeyer's class learned some very valuable information from Officer Amanda McKee. Officer McKee is from the Jerseyville Police Department and spends much of her time focusing on cyber crimes. The students learned about making safe choices on the internet an how even anonymous post can be tracked back to a device/person. Thank you so much Officer McKee and Ms. Kolkmeyer for helping to keep students safe.
