Purchasing of Devices and Digital Citizenship and Safety Planning Requirement

For purchases of devices that students will be using there must be a plan in place for explicit teaching of Digital Citizenship and Safety before deployment of the devices. (iPads/Chromebooks/etc)

The Technology Administrator will discuss with the site Administrator prior to purchasing to verify that a plan is in place or will be in place prior to deployment.
