Digital Citizenship
Make Digital Citizenship a part of our PBIS curriculum that we embedd in our daily curriculum, rather than simply addressing it once a year. This will take some planning and development in coordination with the Technology Committee. Image Source -
Chromebooks at 1:2
Increase the number of Chromebooks on campus to a 1:2 ratio so that one cart can be shared between 2 classrooms. The video surveillance project will help facilitate this design, so that carts can be kept in classrooms overnight. Having Chromebooks more accessible to teachers will allow for more frequent use.
