Technology

Mary Ellen Brafford, Instructional Technology Facilitator

Because we are a 1 to 1 school, each classroom has open access to Chromebooks and iPads for instructional use. As part of our mission as a STEM school, teachers will look for frequent opportunities to embed and integrate technology into the curriculum. Students will be required to adhere to all Cabarrus County Schools technology guidelines. Failure to adhere to those guidelines could result in a students’ access to technology being revoked.

While each classroom has Internet access, parents must sign the ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY(AUP) giving permission for students to use technology and access the Internet in the classroom. Teachers may use selected Internet sites for instructional purposes with the entire class.  Students are monitored closely while using the Internet. Students are not allowed to access the Internet without teacher supervision.  At the beginning of each school year, parents and students will sign AUP documents.
