We are currently preparing for the implementation of the Bring Your Own Device program.  It will be in place by the end of October!  Prior to implementation, we will be taking the time to do the following:

• Staff will receive an orientation, guidelines and expectations about the BYOD program.
• Students will receive an orientation, guidelines, and expectations about the BYOD program.
• Parents and students will be asked to sign a form that outlines the responsibilities when using technology for school purposes.

Students can currently utilize their personal device during lunch/recess and class transition times.  Once the orientations are complete, students will also be able to utilize them in class when directed to do so by the teacher for approved instructional activities.  At all other times these devices need to be in silence mode or turned off, put away, and out of sight. 

More information about the BYOD program is available in the student agenda book and on the HCPSS website.
