Technology
Corvallis Junior High incorporates technology into everyday lessons; Chromebooks, computers and SmartBoards are used to provide pathways for education. Corvallis Junior High has two computer labs and accessible Wi-Fi throughout campus.
The computer lab is open to teachers with their classroom students on a regular basis for students to receive computer instruction and to work on projects. Before students are allowed to use technology at CJH, they must sign a form that acknowledges their understanding of the rules regarding use.
Violations that may result in the loss of computer privileges (but not limited to):
- Downloading programs, games, or files from the internet
- Checking and/or sending personal emails
- Going into “Chat Rooms”
- Playing online games
- Using internet for non-school related activities (unapproved surfing the web is not allowed)
- Excessive printing from the internet (must use copy/paste into Word)
- Changing desktops, screensavers, adjusting monitors, malicious computer activity, etc.
When using the computer lab, students should also follow these rules
- The lab is subject to all school rules
- No food or drinks
- No outside games or programs are allowed
- Use the technology only as it was designed
- Do not move lab equipment, including cabling
- Free printing of school related assignments only. Otherwise, there is a dime per sheet charge. Colored printing is $1 per page. The wasting of paper has been a problem; please remember to do a print preview before you print!
The educational program at Corvallis Junior High includes a technology device that will be issued to your child for their use at school. This also narrows the digital divide between students and promotes responsible use of today’s ever-changing technologies. Illegal or inappropriate use of the Chromebook may result in confiscation and additional consequences.
