Our Programs

WFS One-to-One Device Program

    • One-to-One Program



    
We issue laptops to all students in grades 4 through 12, and each student in kindergarten through grade 3 has access to their own school-issued iPad.

The goal of our program, which has been recognized as an Apple Distinguished Program, is to make the most of technology in service of our educational and philosophical mission.

List of 5 items.

  • Equal Access to Important Tools

    Our program gives students equal access to technology at school and at home. In addition to their devices, our students can utilize an array of content-area-appropriate software along with the Google suite.

  • Optimized Teaching and Learning

    Technology within a quality curriculum deepens student engagement, supporting both independent learning (including differentiated instruction) and collaborative problem solving. From labs to art projects to essays, teachers incorporate technology more easily into their lessons and students have the tools they need to do their best work when everyone is using the same equipment and software.

  • Cost Savings

    Under our 3-year lease program, students in grades 4 though 12 receive the following, totaling over $3,000 per student: 

    13” Macbook Air M3 with 512 Gb HD 
    3 years of AppleCare 
    3 years Full Adobe Suite License available 
    3 years Full Microsoft Office License available 
    3 years of unlimited storage in Google Suite 
    External Backup Drive 
    External protective case 
    Access to Student AppleCore tech support

  • Saving Time & Stress with Repairs

    Our program saves families the time and stress when devices need to be serviced. All student laptops are serviced by WFS and Apple.  Damages are repaired through Apple, and WFS provides a loaner while the device is being serviced. Families pay $100 deductible for each repair incident and students are only without a laptop for about an hour.

    Our in-house tech support, Apple Core, is run by students under the guidance of our IT department.

  • Fostering Digital Literacy

    The one-to-one program goes hand-in-hand with our focus on digital literacy, fostering essential skills like research, coding, communication, collaboration, and responsible online behavior.
