03. Technology Requirements

For our elementary students, you are required to bring a tablet. It should be modern enough to handle educational apps effectively.

We have found that older tablet simply lag too much, so please buy a newer tablet (no more than a a couple of years old). We recommend iPads for their performance, but the final choice can be based on family preference and budget.
