CSISD will...provide an array of services, programs and opportunities to meet the needs of each student, and provide the opportunity for each student to reach his or her full potential.
Background: CSISD believes that our students must not only have access to technology, but must become fluent in a number of technologies to be successful in college or a career. To help accomplish this, each CSISD classroom has access to student computers, and all instructional spaces have a SMARTBoard or Sympodium. We have a wireless overlay of our facilities that makes our "Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)"" initiative possible. We don't ban smartphones or other devices, rather we encourage their use to aid instruction. High school students have the opportunity to participate in a number of high tech computer and technology courses. Beginning in 2013-14, CSISD unveiled Success 24/7, an online learning support portal. This site gives many students access to their teachers' lessons, supporting materials, videos and assignments. Students in these classes get to access their learning anytime and anywhere they have internet access.
