LTHS 1 for All Committee Members needed!
We are looking for a few willing volunteers to help us with our campus 1:1 committee!
This committee will be helping to make decisions regarding the 1:1 rollout at Lebanon Trail. Some of the things that we will be considering:
- Deciding on logistics for distributing devices
- Deciding on procedures for students to handle broken equipment
- Deciding on accountability guidelines for disciplinary issues that may result from this initiative (like what happens if a student does not bring their device to class)
- Deciding how we will implement the 1:1 course for teachers
- and more!
If this sounds like something you would be interested in, please reply to this email and let me know by Monday, Jan 27. We are looking to start meeting very soon.

State of The Chromebooks
- Southwestern University #1 STILL MISSING.
- Please check your rooms, your bags, and at home if you have EVER borrowed a Chromebook from a cart to use separately from a class. Since it is #1, it is probably someone that grabbed it for temporary use and it never got returned.
Please do not ever remove any cords from a Chromebook or Laptop cart. Ever. Kids should never unplug a school device to charge a personal device.
