Computer Lab Reservation Policy

  • The lab is available for all *eligible teachers, on a first-come first serve basis.

  • In order to create a fair reservation policy, please do not make reservations with more than a month in advance.
  • To ensure equity no teacher should reserve the labs for more than 10 hours per week. (Special cases will be considered, please approach the tech-coordinator)

* Teachers are responsible for ensuring students are using the tech equipment in an appropriate manor and within the Acceptable Use Policy of the Tech Department. Please make sure they are not printing irresponsibly

Laptop and Equipment Checkout Considerations

    1. Laptops can be checked out for extended periods of time for conferences or other school related uses, but return date must be clear and abided by since others may be waiting to use them. Laptop FAQ's

    2. Digital cameras may only be checked out overnight since they are needed for digital photography class, they must be returned before 7:45 am to the lab.

    3. Make sure all parts checked out are returned (bag, power cord, flash cards, batteries, etc).

    4. You are responsible for any damage that occurs when you have any piece of school equipment at home.
