The school district and professionals from the United States Attorney's Office are teaming up to help parents learn how to keep their children safe from online predators, cyber-bullies and other Internet dangers.

Child Predators: Hidden Dangers on the Internet will be held on Tuesday, Feb. 12 at 6 p.m. in the Chesaning Middle School media center. The community forum is free and open to the public. Doors open at 5:30 p.m.

Matthew Roth, Assistant United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan, will give parents the tools and information needed to keep their children safe and secure in cyberspace.

Parents from surrounding school districts are also encouraged to attend. Due to the subject matter, the program is for adults only.

"We are very pleased to be hosting the U.S. District Attorney's office for this forum. I hope parents and community members will take advantage of this valuable opportunity to learn about internet safety from the experts," Stewart said.
