NEWS ABOUT HOTSPOTS FROM TINA, OUR DIRECTOR OF TECHNOLOGY---"If the parent filled out the application for a hotspot, they were approved.
They are not here yet. When they come in, we are going to put them in inventory and bring them to your school based on the list I have.
The school will contact the parent about picking them up – the parent will have a form to sign. The state is only providing internet access to the hotspots through Dec. 2020. After that, the devices will need to be turned back into the school.
Comcast is offering families that are in their network a really good deal right now – the flyer is under the Covid section on the District website. Please link it on your website to help spread the news out to the parents/community. The link to the flyer is below.
