Student Devices

All DVUSD schools operate in a Tech Rich environment with all K-12 students provided use of a device. The availability of one-to-one student devices allows teachers to design learning experiences using e-textbooks with embedded links, video, 3D graphics, simulations, collaborative publishing, and instant access to reference information.

Students learning on-campus in grades 1 through 12 and all online K-12 Aspire students utilize Chromebooks. Students in Kindergarten use iPads.

Students in grades K-3 use their assigned student devices at school and devices are stored in the classroom overnight. Students in grades 4-12 bring their assigned student devices to and from school daily to provide access to digital resources beyond the school day.
