Technology Support Resources

To ensure a quality education during remote learning for all students, Los Lunas Schools is providing an iPad for every pre-school, elementary and middle school student and a MacBook for every high school student.

Technology is an excellent tool that LLS began implementing into the curriculum over the past few years.  We realize many students and parents may have difficulties using the devices at home, which is why the Los Lunas Schools Educational Technology Department has created an easy-to-use Step-By-Step Remote Learning Guide to help you and your child during their academic journey. You may also follow the steps below.
