Hot spots will be available. RCPS currently has 100 TMobile hotspots available. Those hot spots have been given out to RHS students. RCPS is waiting for additional hot spots to come in. Once the hot spots arrive, students will be sent home a form that needs to be filled out in order to receive a hot spot. Hot spots will be available on a first come first served basis. Hot spots provided by RCPS are for families that do not have internet at their homes.
