As part of our best efforts to ensure the best education for our students, we are currently distributing Chromebooks for students in grade levels 7th and 8th. Although this is not mandatory, we highly encourage parents to take part in this unique opportunity. Students will be administered state tests, school projects, assignments, and more on these Chromebooks as well as more direct communication between the teacher and the student using Google Classroom. Students will also have fluent access to Clever and Connect through Chromebooks. These digital devices also have a monitoring system, as well as a security integrated system for your child, this way they can navigate through the internet more safely and securely and maintain a focus on the education aspect.
