During the school day on February 12th Ms. Greer will present to 4th and 5th grade students and then to MPS 6thgrade students. Thatsame evening at 7pm, she will speak at a parent/community presentation at Milton High School in the Charles C. Winchester Auditorium for adults only (18 and older- strictly enforced).

Last year, staff, parents and students found Katie Greer’s unique presentation style to be powerful and very well tailored to fit the needs of the audience. For that reason, the administration decided to have her return this year so that others could hear her important internet safety message.
