Benton Community is currently 1:1 K-12 using iPADs and Chromebooks as our devices. Grades K-5 use iPADs while 6-12 use Chromebooks. The continued support of the board will be needed to maintain refresh rates for these devices. Over the last few years, we've upgraded network infrastructure to handle the increased traffic generated by these over fifteen hundred devices. We've primarily used ESSER and E-Rate funding to make these purchases. We've also added a new phone system, added and upgraded our security camera systems in all buildings, and most recently added HUDL cameras to our gym and outdoor stadium in order to Livestream events.
