FCPS Bring Your Own Device Program
              
In addition to working towards installing wireless capability in schools, the county is piloting a new Electronic Devices - Student use Policy as well.  As school systems work to provide current technology to students, many are instituting a program that allows students to bring their personal devices to school to use for educational reasons within the school setting.  Devices can include iPod Touchs, smartphones, eBooks readers, tablets, laptops, etc.  Please note that as part of BYOD use, the student with parental approval assumes all responsibility of any loss or damage to their personally owned device.
  
All participating FCPS BYOD users will follow the newly developed FCPS BYOD pilot guidelines for BYOD use.  All NMMS BYOD students must watch a required video and sign the Internet and BYOD responsibility agreement to participate in the program.  Please note that the student assumes responsibility for adhering to the county Electronic Devices - Student use Policy. NMMS will follow discipline steps if use is inappropriate.
