The New York State Office of Information Technology Services’ Enterprise Information Security Office is hosting the annual NYS K-12 Kids Safe Online Poster Contest to encourage Internet security and awareness.
This is a great opportunity for school librarians to speak to students about being safe while on the Internet and when using computers and mobile devices.
The contest has four entry categories: Kindergarten – Grade 2, Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8 and Grades 9-12.
New York State winners will be displayed in the 2018 NYS Kids Safe Online Calendar and entered into the MS-ISAC National Computer Security Poster Contest which is held in the spring.
Questions regarding the contest may be submitted to jessica.smith2@its.ny.gov.
The contest entry deadline is November 30, 2016.
