Students in grades 7–12 at West Side had the opportunity to participate in an engaging and interactive Internet Safety presentation led by Officer Phil Blaylock and Chief Amber Sanford (pictured below with one of the participating student groups). Officer Blaylock shared real-world scenarios that helped students better understand the potential risks associated with the internet, cell phones, and social media. Through practical examples and open discussion, students were encouraged to think critically, make responsible choices online, and consider the long-term impact of their digital footprint. The presentation provided valuable tools and strategies to help students stay safe and make positive decisions in today’s digital world.

The West Side book club has been reading books and discussing them with one another every Thursday during lunch.
