This record contains the number of assigned devices by school from of an existing report pulled by Information Technology as of September 10, 2020, along with the number not yet assigned for requests. Please note, at the elementary level, demand is not calculated as 1:1 devices are being supplied.
Under this recent response we provided information on hotspots purchased by HCPSS to date along with identified internet access needs under a State grant application.
