Students face new threats online. Now their schools can help keep them safe.
Cyberbullying, Sexting, Profanity, Inappropriate Behavior...
Unfortunately, the threats students face on social media can affect not only their reputation, but that of your school as well. Social media presents an important challenge that we have a responsibility to address, and the SafeStudents Online program is the ideal approach to protecting students without invading their privacy. Our comprehensive school program helps keep all students safe.
With SafeStudents Online, responsibility remains with parents. Schools cannot see students’ online activity (no “Big Brother”). Parents have the information they need to address online issues before they become major problems – for students and your school.
As a school community focused on honest, ethical dialogue, we believe the SafeStudents Online program is an excellent parenting tool.
My key message is: our kids need to know we are paying attention. To simply trust that they will use their phones and social media responsibly is really avoiding the idea that we have to educate and instruct them on ethical behavior, on communicating as Christians."

“During the past year, we were very happy with the parent response to SafeStudents Online. We were pleased that incidents involving social networking were literally non-existent. It appears that many 'bad decisions' were caught by parents before they became problems that involved the school.”

“St. Pat's is excited to offer a tool to families that will help them initiate conversations with their children about appropriate social media use. We feel that SafeStudents Online is the best avenue to help parents monitor social media use as well as build trusting relationships with their children.”

“Since social media plays such a major role in the lives of our students, schools need to be proactive in facing the challenges that it presents. The SafeStudents Online Program is tremendous because it empowers parents to protect their children from the dangers of social media. The approach of this program makes the parents the first line of defense.”
