Technology and Connectivity:

Access to technology is essential for the successful roll-out of this plan. The HUFSD has been committed to ongoing planning and implementation of district technologies to ensure equitable access for staff and students. The team has initiated plans that are mindful of student home access to reliable internet and computers.

• The HUFSD recently gathered data through our Digital Equity Survey to identify families’ levels of access to devices and high-speed broadband from their residence. The district will continue to assess the ongoing needs of our families for technology and connectivity (survey, interviews, school outreach, etc.)

• Maintain an inventory of equipment and other assets. Identify which students, families, and staff have district assets in their possession.

• Procure, manage, and/or maintain hardware, software, licenses, learning management systems, etc. to support and improve remote instruction and student engagement.

• Identify professional learning needs for teachers and continue to support their development of skills and pedagogy in remote learning environment.

The HUFSD will provide all students with access to learning materials and resources in multiple formats, wherever possible. Further, the district will support teachers through professional development and coaching on pedagogical methods that enable students to participate in multiple ways, so that they can demonstrate mastery of Learning Standards in remote instruction through the use of both synchronous through Zoom and asynchronous technologies through Google Classroom. In the event students do not have sufficient access to devices and/or high-speed internet, the district will provide the students with alternate methods to access materials and instruction, i.e. pick up materials at school, drop off materials to students’ homes, etc. The district will also schedule opportunities to connect with families to educate them on how to use the technologies and connect to the instructional activities.

Remote/Distance Learning

• Students in grades K-4 will be provided with an iPad to be taken home in the event of the district needing to pivot to remote learning.

• Students in grades 5-12 have 1-1 devices for at home use

• Teachers have access to a desktop or laptop in their classroom. Teachers also have a school issued iPad, laptop, or Chromebook.

• Students will use their own internet when at home. If no internet access is available, the district will provide a hotspot, if one is available. Students in need of a hotspot will contact the Technology Department and pending administrative approval will be provided with the hotspot in a timely manner.
