Technology
Technology is a vital part of learning today. It is a powerful learning tool that everyone needs to utilize now more than ever! We strive to provide the latest technology resources to teachers and students to allow them to teach and learn at their fullest potential.
One-to-One (1:1) Technology Program
Moniteau School District offers one-to-one (1:1) technology to students in grades 1–12. This provides these students with an opportunity to use a district-provided device in class as well as at home. Kindergarten students have devices available to use in class. By providing 1:1 technology, there are some procedures and policies that students and parents need to be aware of:
- Technology devices are the property of Moniteau School District.
- Students taking devices home daily need to charge their device at home. All devices have an 8 to 12 hour battery life to last throughout the school day. If the device is not charged, students will need to bring their charger with them to school.
- Devices are filtered 24/7 against inappropriate web content per Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) guidelines. Teachers have the ability to monitor student use throughout the day.
- The Moniteau School District Policy 815 – Acceptable Use of Computer Technology is in effect at all times when using a district-owned device and/or a Moniteau School district user account.
As school property, technology devices are included in Moniteau School District Policy 224 – Care of School Property.
If parents or students are having trouble with the technology at home, please try the steps outlined in this document.
