Chromebook Program |
---|
Damien High School adopted a 1:1 computing environment several years ago, in which all students must have a Google Chromebook for educational use. We believe Chromebooks are the more effective, innovative, and affordable learning device for our students and their families. Chromebooks are fast, secure, simple to use, offer long battery life and integrate seamlessly with student Google email accounts and Apps for Education.
Supporting student learning is the primary goal of our 1:1 program, and we believe that Chromebooks are the best tool to support this goal. In addition, the Chrome operating system works within our network to provide mandated filters and security measures. In preparation for the school year, we invite you to visit our website for additional information regarding our Chromebook program as well as information regarding digital textbooks.
