Technology is an integral part of the Metro educational model. School devices are issued to enrolled students for use in our courses: iPads for middle school, MacBooks for high school. The annual student fee provides coverage for all preventive maintenance, annual updates, and software licensing. Families assume responsibility for the device and its safe return at the end of the school year or the student's enrollment at Metro.
Reliable internet access is vital for the use of school technology at home (homework and virtual days). If your family needs affordable internet options, see the resources at the following link: Low Income Internet Guide
