We are a 1:1 technology for our students or have mobile carts available. Our student internet use policy is for USD #379 provided devices. We do not have a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device).
Students are not allowed to bring their own devices e.g. computer, iPad, to school.
Our network is protected and the Director of Technology monitors suspicious activity. A student violating the Student Internet Use Policy is subject to loss of network, privileges, and any other disciplinary options or legal actions.
