Teacher Chromebooks
The Tech Department has had several requests for teacher chromebooks. We hope to ensure every teacher has an avenue to project during instruction. Either through and iPad, Chromebook or doc-camera. We are trying to ensure each cart has 1-2 extra to enable the teacher to have access as well. These devices are checked out to your room, so you are welcome to use them to meet your needs.
We have a limited amount of teacher chromebooks, click the link below to apply.
Student Chromebooks 1 to 1
We will be continuing to shuffling Chromebooks across the district to meet classroom enrollment needs. Although have availability to be one-to-one, we have placed extra devices in middle school carts to accommodate larger classes. We are in process of purchasing more for the district.
Tech Cadre
Remember you have access to a Tech Cadre member to support troubleshooting technology in your classroom.
They can assist you with; Passwords, Blackboard (Teacher Messaging), software issues and integrating technology into student learning.
