Harmony Middle School

Harmony Middle 1:1 Laptop Initiative

The goal of Harmony Middle School’s One-to-One initiative is to provide all students with the digital resources and skills needed to allow for creative digital collaborations between all teachers and students while engaged in academic work.

Once the student has received the laptop, students will need to bring their provided laptop back to school every day, fully charged, ready for class. The laptops will be filtered and monitored during school and home use. The students will also receive a laptop case. Students are expected to ensure that all devices checked out for them are stored securely in their bag to prevent devices from being damaged.
