Overview

All THS, TMS, and 5th grade students are issued a Chromebook for use in school and at home, all 2nd,3rd, and 4th grade students have access to Chromebooks at school. All K-1 grade students have access to iPads at school. These devices serve as a platform that supports learning that fosters 21st Century Skills. They are school-property and students will be held accountable for their safe-keeping.

Students who take their Chromebook home will bring it to school everyday, charged, ready to be used in class at their teacher's discretion.

A representative from the IT department will be available in each school on a daily basis to provide technical support to this program. Students can come to the media center in between classes or let their teacher know they need to go there for technical support. Devices are available to be given on loan in the event that a device needs to be repaired or replaced.

Read the Parent/Student 1:1 Initiative Information Packet for more information.
