Windows / Mac Laptop Recommended Specifications
Last Update: July 2023
Important Note: These specifications are designed for parents who are considering purchasing a new laptop to help assist in that process. Students may bring a used laptop; however, it is important to note the lifespan of laptops is typically 3 to 5 years. This list will be updated annually.
Important Tips: Battery life & screen size are two of the most important specifications for students. Devices that can support 8 hours+ of battery life will make it through a school day without requiring a charge. Smaller screen sizes of 13”/14” typically work better for students due to the device being lightweight and better fits on a student desk/work area.
