TCSD 1:1 Learning Technology Initiative
TCSD provides 1:1 MacBook Airs for students in grades 9-12 and 1:1 iPads for students in grades 6-8.  These devices are assigned to students for the school year and may be taken home to complete school related assignments.  Elementary students grades 4 and 5 work in an 1:1 environment with iPads while at school, students do not take the devices home.  Students in grade K-3 share iPads under a two to 1 ratio.   Teachers are issued iPads and MacBooks.

Device insurance is available for students and staff: If you were issued 1:1 devices (Apple MacBook Air and/or iPad 6) you are eligible to purchase device insurance from Safeware. This insurance provides coverage in excess of that provided by warranties, and protects you from adverse events such as loss, damage or theft. This is optional, but does provide extra coverage. Please check with TCSD regarding open enrollment dates.

School Messenger
TCSD #1 uses the SchoolMessenger System to communicate important school and district information to parents/guardians.  Messages are sent via telephone, text, and email. Parents/guardians are automatically signed up to receive telephone and email messages when registering students for school.  To ensure you receive these messages please be sure you have provided the district current telephone numbers and email addresses.  

To receive text messages federal law requires that you "opt in".  You may do so by texting the word "YES" to 67587.

You may contact Charlotte Reynolds at (307) 732-9409 or creynolds@tcsd.org if you have any questions about signing up to receive School Messenger communications.
