The Laptop Program
Incoming SHA students are required to participate in the laptop program in which the school leases the student computers. This approach provides the highest possible quality while also insuring the functionality and security of the school’s network. This program involves a 4-year lease with the annual technology fee payment due on May 1 each year. At the end of 4 years, there will be a market value buyout option for families who are interested.
