AG SCHEULLER RECEIVES A GIFT FROM 2nd GRADERS.

ARLINGTON, VA—The Michigan Attorney General’s office is in its fifth year of outreach to students with its Cyber Safety Initiative—Michigan CSI—reaching almost 900,000 students statewide. Launched in September 2007, Michigan CSI is carried throughout the state by 25 trained presenters, most of whom are retired educators or principals with classroom and public speaking experience.

Michigan CSI features iKeepSafe’s Faux Paw the Techno Cat® internet safety series as the foundation for its presentation for children. To celebrate what they learned about being safe online  and protecting personal information, second graders in Fowlerville Community Schools made a book for AG Schuette.

Jenifer Esch, Consumer Programs Administrator at the Michigan Department of Attorney General said, “We are very proud of Michigan CSI and of Mrs. Maurer’s second grade class. We have been extremely fortunate to work with organizations like the Internet Keep Safe Coalition and your very own Marsali Hancock.”

The Michigan AG’s office also runs a second statewide program called Senior Brigade to help seniors, their families and caregivers aviod scams and fraud.

iKeepSafe applauds AG Schuette and his Consumer Protection Division for their proactive approach to digital citizenship for Michigan’s students and seniors.
