We are thrilled to announce an exciting development in our commitment to providing a cutting-edge educational experience for our students. Starting this fall, our high school will transition from Lenovo PCs to a 1:1 Apple program, equipping each student with a MacBook Air to support their learning journey.
This initiative is a significant step forward in integrating technology into our curriculum, enabling personalized learning and fostering an environment where students can thrive in the digital age.
The 1:1 MacBook Air program is designed to enhance the educational experience by providing:
-
Every student will have access to a wide range of educational apps and resources tailored to their learning needs, promoting a more engaging and personalized education.
-
The MacBook Air’s versatility and ease of use will allow for seamless integration into our daily teaching and learning activities, ensuring students are well-prepared for the technological demands of the future.
-
With a MacBook Air at their fingertips, students will have endless opportunities to collaborate with peers and teachers, fostering creativity and innovation in projects, assignments, and research.
-
Equipping students with personal laptops comes with the responsibility of using technology ethically and wisely. We are committed to guiding our students to become responsible digital citizens while incorporating online safety.
Distribution and Training
To ensure a smooth transition, we will provide detailed information on the distribution process, including how and when students will receive their MacBook Airs in preparation for the start of school. Additionally, we will offer training sessions for students and parents to familiarize everyone with the devices and discuss best practices for their use in both academic and personal settings.
Looking Ahead
We believe that this transition will open new doors for our students, providing them with the tools and skills necessary to succeed in a rapidly evolving digital world. We are excited to embark on this journey together and are confident that the 1:1 MacBook Air program will enrich our students’ educational experience in countless ways.
The Junior High students will continue with the recently acquired Lenovo laptops for another 2-3 years and then transition to MacBook Air laptops as well.
Fourth through sixth grade students receive a classroom laptop to use at school.
