Hi Parents and Guardians,
Welcome to the LDMS one-to-one laptop section of the website. We hope this section will allow you to quickly access information about the one-to-one laptop initiative and the important role that technology plays in the 21st Century classroom.
"One-to-One" means that every student at LDMS will have a laptop assigned to them to use. All students will be given a charger so they can take their laptops home every night. You can find more information in the One-to-One Laptop Guidebook. As always, if you still have questions or would like more information, please contact a teacher, guidance counselor, or administrator.
