The Clinton Community School District utilizes a wide range of technology for our students and staff.
The district primarily utilizes Google for its day to day operations. Both students and staff utilize the Google Apps for Education Suite which includes but is not limited to Docs, Sheets, Slides, Gmail, Scholar, and many others.
Students in 4K and Kindergarten utilize a combination of iPads, Chromebooks, Windows Desktops, and Macs in order to best expose them in small amounts to all operating systems. The platform the students utilize is based upon what application the teacher has them working with at the time and helps to maximize the exposure to various operating systems.
Our 1st graders through 5th graders all utilize Chromebooks which stay in the Classroom. These devices do not go home with the students but are available throughout the day for students to utilize at the teacher's discretion. 5th Grade students will begin to check out a Chromebook overnight in various situations to complete projects and assignments.
Our 6th graders through Seniors have the option to utilize a district-owned Chromebook which they can take home with them throughout the school year or they can bring in their own device with our BYOD policy.
All students and staff are filtered using Securly as our content filter. Chromebooks owned by the district are filtered both at school and at home, while BYOD devices can only be filtered while in the school building.
The district has three computer labs, two labs located at the High School and one located at the Middle School. At the High School, we have one lab (Business Lab) dedicated for graphic design and video editing along with basic word processing utilizing Microsoft Office products. The other two labs at both the High School and Middle School are dedicated for Autodesk Inventor and Revit applications.
Other technologies utilized within the district are Vex Robotics, Smartboards, Interactive TVs, Greenroom, Audio Recording, and much more!
