Internet Security Workshop / February 2, 2021
Natalie Wood Riché, Outreach Specialist with the North Carolina Department of Justice will lead the workshop with information on internet safety. Topics include protecting personal/financial information on-line, managing digital footprints and navigating privacy on the internet.
As most people stay at home to help flatten the curve, we’re also spending more time online. This is particularly true for our children and teenagers, who are going to school online and staying connected with friends and loved ones on social media. Spending more time online puts young people at greater risk for sharing private information or being exploited by predators. You won't want to miss this workshop to learn how to protect your family!

But what is advocacy?
Well, advocacy is defined by Merriam-Webster as “supporting a cause or proposal”. In PTA terms, advocacy means supporting students, teachers, administrators and parents.
How? Through adequate school funding, parental involvement, accountability of funds and helping maintain the health and wellness of all children.
Why? You are already an “advocate” for your student by supporting him or her. Now join us in advocating for all students.
Who? The advocacy committee is open to any interested PTA member. If you are not a Hilburn PTA member, you can join now.
