Technology

All students will receive a school issued Chromebook that will meet all of the educational needs in the classroom. There are times that the chromebooks will go home each night with the students, especially during winter months when the weather can be dangerous.

We offer a complete Technology section at the District website that offers details for families and technology use and support, including:

  • KCSD Technology Users Guide
  • Technology support for elementary and secondary students
  • Technology Q and A
  • Skyward, Schoology, TalkingPoints and other communication and learning platforms
  • Technology policies and forms

Please go to the Technology section at the District website to review this valuable support information. 

Technology

Please note: Students in Elementary school are not allowed to have smartphones or smart watches unless they are medically necessary and there is documentation from a medical provider.  

In the event that a child has a cell phone or smart watch, it will be taken to the office and the parent will be notified to come and pick it up.  

Elementary Students: Acceptable Use Guidelines

We believe that technology can help us learn, talk to each other, and work together. To use these tools well, we have some rules called "Using Technology the Right Way." These rules help us make sure we use computers, the Internet, and other technology tools in a good and safe way.

Using Technology the Right Way: Simple Guidelines for Students

Students First, Technology Second.

The KCSD Department of Technology works to: 

  • Change the perception that technology and instruction are separate.
  • Support KCSD instructional goals, refined each year to best meet our students' needs.
  • Fulfill the demands for proven resources in a financially responsible & sustainable manner.
  • Investigate emerging technologies.
  • Provide ongoing opportunities for authentic professional development. 
  • Support all students, staff and families. 
  • Facilitate transparent communication throughout the KCSD community.
