Campus Wi-Fi now available

Jayden Beatty, Associate Editor • October 27, 2012

Bring Your Own Technology (BYOT) is a new program that allows students to bring personal mobile learning devices to school to use during class for instructional purposes.

“BYOT allows students to make connections between school and their personal life by using their own devices,” associate Principal Cameron Rosser said.

The allowed devices include Internet-ready cell phones, tablets, laptops and eReaders. Gaming devices with Internet access are not permissible.

Students must adhere to classroom and campus rules and only access the web through the Canyon High public Wi-Fi which maintains the same internet restrictions as school computers. The utilization of 3G or 4G is not permitted.

Hello everyone! My name is Jayden Beatty, and I am a senior at Canyon High. I am the associate editor of the Eagles Tale this year! This is my third year on staff and I am excited to bring the students of Canyon High another year of awesome news coverage. Outside of newspaper I am the president of the Canyon High Speech and Debate team, and I am involved in several organizations such as NHS, Key Club, and HOSA. After graduation my plan is to attend college with a degree in political science and a minor in foreign policy. My ultimate goal is to one day be working in the Department of State building in Washington D.C. In my spare time I love spending time with my family and friends! My favorite activities are reading (usually Harry Potter) and watching movies (again usually Harry Potter). As my last year at Canyon High, I hope to make this one a great one! Thanks for reading everyone!
