STUDENT USE OF COMPUTERS
ALL students at Carine Senior High School have the opportunity to log in to the school’s computer network with an individual account. Because teachers may require students to log in as part of their course ALL students, with their parent or guardian, must complete the Computer Use Accountability Form and return it to their contact teacher or with enrolment papers to the front office.
