1:1 Device Program

2023-2024 Devices

 

Students are strongly urged to use the district-provided devices. If you opt to provide a device for your child, you need to ensure that the device will hold a charge for the full school day as we do not have the capacity for students to plug in devices in the classrooms.

 

We are able to ensure school issued devices have the necessary applications and address any issues students may encounter. One application which is especially important is LanSchool Air which enables the teacher to connect with all students in the classroom and engage with them remotely as they work in school.  For example, the teacher can view the student’s monitor as they work and offer feedback in real time. They can also manage the class by blanking the students’ screens to bring their attention back to whole class instruction or restrict students’ access to the internet.

    Montville Public Schools is using myPayments plus to collect online Protection Plan fees this year. This is the same program we use with the lunch program. You can also pay with cash or a check. Checks need to be made out to Montville BOE and write the student's ID number and grade in the memo line. Cash and Checks are to be handed into the main office or your student's school. There is no need to purchase additional insurance when the devices are swapped.
