Information Technology

The Sprint 1 Million Device phone distribution continues to go well. As of the end of February,
following devices were distributed:

RC = 362 RE = 290 RS = 333

Additional communication is ongoing about this very beneficial program.

The 1:1 device initiative started with a pilot at Rich South. Students with signed parental
agreements in Ms. Hughes's class received a Chromebook. As parents complete and return the
necessary forms, additional distributions will occur. The goal is to have all freshmen at Rich
South with a device. Additional updates will be provided in future reports.
