Technology at RLRS

At RLRS, we offer 1:1 technology for students in grades K-12. Students in grades K-5 use iPads, and students in grades 6-12 use MacBook Airs. Staff use a mix of MacBook Airs, MacBook Pros, iMacs, and iPads. 

Students in grades K-12 and staff are allocated Google Workspace accounts, providing the ability to use all apps in the Google suite; Gmail, Classroom, Docs, Sheets, Slides, and more. This fosters collaboration between students and staff for working on assignments, and provides preparation for what is commonly seen in the workforce.

For learning management systems, elementary uses Seesaw, whereas middle and high school uses Google Classroom.

RLRS has a strong Graphics program that is offered to students in grades 9-12. These students use Adobe products, and have access to a large format printer and cameras to create and produce quality work.

Students in grades K-5 use a variety of learning applications daily. These applications include:

• IXL - A learning applicition that is used for multiple subject areas, including reading, math, science, and social studies

• Lexia - A literacy application that is differentiated by reading level

• Seesaw - A learning management system that provides teachers a way of assigning work and communicating with families

• Epic! - A digitial reading platform 

• Everyday Math - A digital math curriculum

• Kids A-Z - A learning suite used to promote ELA skills
