Is there anytime spent on handwriting or research/reading from physical books? How are distractions limited in the classroom? For example, when using their computers during class, do students have access to social media and/or texting?

Per the Principal, they never have access to social media, youtube, games, and content is heavily filtered at all times.

If this is true, it's new this year.

This is what he said today at an info session at Stokes.

Wow... maybe the school is reevaluating the tech policy. What about there cell phone policy? Are all assignments/ reading materials also on Chromebook?

Most assignments on CB, many books on Kindle on CB, some hard copies though. Kids keep the CB during the summer for interim work. Cell phones I believe are allowed to be used during breaks and lunch.
