SSCM has an one-to-one program with our 7th and 8th grade classes. These students bring their own Chromebook to school and use it throughout the day. In addition to the 7th and 8th grade students having their own devices, SSCM provides access to Chromebooks for students in 1st through 6th grades. Access to this technology is providing our students with the following:
An easier transition into high school as many high schools are using this technology
