This gives us more options & opportunities for submitting assignments online and using apps to enhance classroom learning. Grades 6-8 have their own school email addresses. If you have questions about the iPad policy, please contact Mrs. Once all forms have been signed by students/parents and returned, we distribute the iPads by classes.

As each new school year starts up, we send home an iPad Policy Form (to ALL students in grades K-8).

Our computer lab consists of 26 PCs operating on Windows 10. This allows them to be accountable for their own success but does not give them the same access as parents for updating student and family information. Students in grades 6-8 have their own log in to access this information also. Parents have access to ParentsWeb to view their students’ grades, missing assignments, etc.

Go to our Calendar of Events or School Calendar for instructions for subscribing to the calendar if you’d like to sync it with your personal calendar! RenWeb for Students You may have also noticed that the Calendar page and Upcoming events are now pulling from a Google Calendar. As part of this transition, we have also made our weekly newsletter paperless and are encouraging staff to send messages home via email, rather than on paper when possible.

Our staff and students use Google Apps for Education for email, calendar, and more! This change was implemented to increase efficiency and reduce paper use within the school. In grades 4-8, teachers will continue to implement technology into their regular class lessons and projects. Our goal is to create a more consistent and cohesive curriculum of technology skills for students to be more successful when they reach Middle School. This class will implement basic technology skills both on the computer and the iPad appropriate for each age group. Once a week, students in grades K-3 have “Computer Applications Class”.
