Message from Campo Administration regarding laptops:
Educational Technology at Campo - Bring Your Own Device Program
At Campolindo, we embrace technology as a crucial component of our students' educational journey. We encourage families to participate in our Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program, where students bring their personal laptops to school and access our Wi-Fi, online resources, textbooks, databases, and various applications. This approach fosters responsibility and pride in their learning experience. Our IT team is available for support and guidance for those transitioning from a 1:1 device program in middle school. To ensure a smooth transition, please consider these guidelines on recommended device specifications and any necessary software or applications that students may need to install.
If providing a personal device is not feasible, school-issued devices will be available at Cougar Day for 9th graders and new students. Returning students can check out a device before school, during brunch and lunch, and after school from room A14 during the first week of school. Ultimately, we aim to ensure every student has the necessary tools for academic success.
WE NEED PARENT VOLUNTEERS TO HELP OUT - please sign up by clicking the button below.
*If your student cannot make Cougar Day, they can pick up their information at a Mini-Cougar Day on Tuesday, August 13th from 7:30 am - 8:30 am in the Small Gym.
