Thirteen students are compelled by their dreams to play a game in the woods to keep a mysterious monster at bay. Not everyone gets to play it again.

Riley High School scholars participated in an important presentation led by the CASIE Center this week, focusing on bullying awareness and digital safety. Students learned practical strategies for protecting themselves online and recognizing the warning signs of social media predators. We are committed to empowering our scholars with the knowledge and skills to stay safe both in school and in the digital world.
