TECHNOLOGY


Greenwich Public Schools provides each child with access to computer technologies including the Internet. Access to the Internet enriches children’s educational experiences and provides necessary skills in order for them to collaborate, research and communicate in our global society. Within this context, Greenwich Public Schools makes every effort to provide a safe and appropriate experience for your child.

 

Please take some time to familiarize yourself with the District's Internet Procedures and Guidelines, which can be found here.
