Device Distribution for 2020-2021 School Year
Campus staff is in the process of contacting families for technology distribution. If your student needs a laptop, tablet, or hotspot for the 2020-2021 school year, and you have not received a call from the campus by August 12th, contact the school office. Device distribution will be coordinated and scheduled through the campus librarians.
Parents purchasing a device for the school year should keep in mind the minimum device requirements for virtual learning with Microsoft Teams.
