All students are expected to have the prescribed iPad for instruction. The iPad is used as a tool; as such, and like any other tool, it is useful in some instances but not in all instances. CBS is intentional about the manner in which we use the iPad to enhance learning in the classroom. We provide a balance of technological and non-technological instruction in order to provide students with a variety of experiences in preparation for high school and life.
