Yes! We suggest using Veracross or Google Sites to keep updated information that your class families can refer back to, although you are welcome to choose a different platform. In Veracross, each class has a dedicated page to communicate with families in your class. You may put the information directly on that page, or include a link to any external website.
Yes, absolutely! Each class automatically has a dedicated page in Veracross to communicate with families. You can post updates directly there or use it to link to an external site. While we recommend Veracross or Google Sites for keeping families informed, you are welcome to use whichever platform works best for you.
Students in K-4 have access to class iPads. We have a 1-to-1 iPad program for 5th grade and up. In the Elementary and Junior High, iPads are assigned by the teacher for use that school year. In the High School, students are given a Macbook when they enter 9th grade to use for the remainder of their time at Paideia. If you need a specific app for your students, contact Brandon Darrow with the name of the app and which iPads you need it pushed to.
