Common use of Computers Clause in Contracts

Computers. Each student in grades 5 - 8 should bring a laptop or tablet as part of the required school supplies. Students will be using these devices to write original work and to access online resources and textbooks for study and research. This program not only gives our students greater access to the wide range of digital educational resources available, but it will also help our students develop the skills needed to be successful in a digital learning environment. It is important that each student has a device on which he or she is comfortable using Microsoft Office (i.e. Microsoft Word, Excel, Power Point, Publisher) and utilizing online resources. Since many of our students already have access to devices they can bring to school, they are recommended to use what is available to them before purchasing a new device. Generally, any laptop purchased within the past few years should meet the specifications needed. Some specific recommendations are listed below. There are a limited number of laptops available to students who do not have access to their own devices.
