Starting the Process
Contact the school you wish to receive the donation. The following information will need to be provided.
- The make, model number, OS, and if known the processor speed
- Condition of the technology, and if known the age
The school receiving the donation will submit the information to the Network and Engineering Department for review. The department will check to make sure the device is compatible with the existing network and that the device will support the latest security requirements. The school will then be notified of the outcome.
