BYOD Bring Your

Own Device

Each student went through the BYOD

orientation and training last week with Mrs.
Read, Laniers Media Specialist. A form was
also sent home with your child asking for
parent permission and informing us of which
device will be brought to school. We are
asking students who have completed the
permission form begin bringing in their
devices Tuesday, January 12, 2015. Students
without signed permission forms will only be
allowed to use school devices. If you need a
new form please let your childs teacher
know.
