read online.

dependency.
Ask yourself if
your Internet use is
affecting your

performance,
health, and
relationships with
family and friends.
11. Using Internet communication tools such as social
media, e-mail, and instant messaging can put you at
potential risk of encountering online predators.
Certain sites have been blocked by the district. Do not
attempt to override these blocks
Online predators try to gradually
seduce their targets through attention,
affection, kindness, and even gifts,
and often devote considerable time,
money, and energy to this effort.
