 <title>Hi everyone!!  I&#039;m brand new, and thats not an April Fools Joke!!</title>

 <description>&lt;p&gt;Hi.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For those of you interested in Internet Safety, I&#039;m glad I signed up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For the past two years, I&#039;ve spear-headed Internet Safety education and awareness not only in my elementary school where I created and implmented a unique Internet Safety curriculum for 250 2nd and 3rd graders, but in my entire district as well.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am the Regional Office of Education #26 Internet Safety Coordinator, a position that was created for me.  Although online safety is my job, it is my passion and has been for several years.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I also write a regular newspaper column about these issues, am a mother of two ornery teenagers(and have 3 cats and a dog, although they dont go online--YET)..&lt;br /&gt;
I am Chairperson of a committee I assembled to brainstorm said issues.  I also work with over 500 children every week in a computer lab environment, so its no wonder I&#039;m tired!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have a very unique perspective based on the above, when it comes to Internet Safety education and awareness, which most people dont have and I will hopefully be able to share experiences, and enlighten those who will listen.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As I always have to have a big project to work on, I&#039;ve put together a Internet Safety resource blog for educators and parents.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you have a free moment, which I know is rare, please take a moment to stop by and say hi.  ANy comments or suggestions would be GREAT.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hope you all have a wonderful Sunday and thanks for this wonderful site!!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;jace&lt;/p&gt;
