Q: I tried to connect to my high schools wifi but it wouldn't let me

I tried to connect to my schools open wifi. You have to type in your student ID number and password to access it. I went to the wifi bar at the top to join, and when i went on safari or google, It would say that i have wifi, but whenever i would try to log in it would say not connected to the internet and would have a connect button, which i would press, and it wouldn't load and then it would bring me to another page but I forget what it said but it had a button that said back to safety and that would just repeat. If it turned the off the wifi on my computer then back on and tried to connect, a thing would come up saying "unable to identify the website" and then the wifi name ... then under that it said "the certificate for this website is invalid. You might be connecting to a website that is pretending to be (name of wifi thing) which would put your confidential information at risk. Would you like to connect to the website anyway?"

 

Im not sure if I should just click continue, but I dont want to just in case...

MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
