The ACS 1:1 Laptop Program launched in 2012, where families provide a laptop computer as a learning tool for children in grades 5 through 12 for daily use. Family Owned laptops at school are used throughout the day in order to accelerate learning, provide greater opportunities for students to showcase their understanding, and help to foster collaboration between peers and teachers. The program also allows greater access to resources that support classroom instruction. Our goal through the use of the technology tool is to inspire our students to become Global Advocates.
