Internet-Connected Device Exception Request
The district must follow the recent law regarding bell-to-bell personal devices being off and away during the school day.

There are exceptions permitted under the law for students to bring their own device, in particular instances where medical or learning needs may not be met by a district-issued Chromebook. The district will evaluate these on a case-by-case need.

Please be mindful that registering your device to use in the district must be under the allowable exceptions of N.J.S.A. 18A:36-40b, and may include installing district filtering software locally on your student’s device.

If you would like to request an exception for your child to bring his or her device to school, please complete this form, and the district will reach out to you with more information on the next steps.
