1:1 Initiative

• effectively utilize technology to enhance learning and achievement
• use online content, the internet, and technology applications to learn at higher levels
• use critical thinking skills to collaborate, plan and conduct research, problem solve, and manage projects.
• understand and practice legal and ethical behavior related to technology.

The L-S 1:1 learning initiative will provide all students in grades 5-12 with a laptop to facilitate the goals above. During the 2016-2017 school year, students in grades 5 at Hans Herr Elementary School piloted the program which will be expanded to grades 5-8 during the 2017-2018 school year and to grades 5-12 during the 2018-2019 school year.

There are no immediate plans to implement a 1:1 program at Lampeter-Elementary School or in grades 3-4 at Hans Herr Elementary School. However, the District has made a significant investment in technology and professional development for those grade levels. The plan is to continue the expansion and effective utilization of technology in each grade level leading up to grade 5.

Below are links to supporting documents related to the implementation of the District’s 1:1 initiative. Please feel free to contact your child’s school office with questions.
