News & UpdatesTechnology Updates - Devices: The District’s network is more secure when only District devices are allowed access. Furthermore, the District is better able to monitor District devices as opposed to personal devices. Therefore, please be advised that on March 1, non-District student devices will no longer be able to access the District’s network when on-site. If your child is remote, they will still be able to access their account through a personal device, but that device is subject to your home security settings and is not afforded the same level of security that District devices provide. If your child is using their own device to access our network, please come to our Central Office, located at 132 Thomas Street, Monday through Friday, between 8:00am and 4:00pm to pick up a District device.
