1:1 Initiative

SLHS is committed to preparing students to be college and career ready; communication, creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking skills are essential to thrive in the 21st century. Starting with the 2018-2019 school year, all students in 9th - 11th grade will be required to purchase a Chromebook from the school to use for educational purposes. Having ongoing access to technology will allow our students to consistently practice and apply those 21st century skills, and prepare them for a variety of post-secondary options.

SLHS 9th - 11th graders will be required to pay a $50 tech fee which includes a Chromebook and digital learning tools. No OPT-OUT option is available for grades 9 - 11.
