Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)

All students are required to bring their own device to support their learning.

The process includes students and parents/caregivers signing a user agreement indicating that the school’s BYOD Guidelines and Cyber Safety Agreements have been read and understood. Laptops, along with the completed documents, are then left with our IT technician to be connected to the school system.
