Hamden Hall Country Day School
Educating Students in PreSchool through Grade 12

List Detail

Technology and OnCampus Learning Management System

Through careful planning and investment, Hamden Hall built a robust academic technology platform that enables our faculty to utilize the technology and Internet resources at their disposal to the benefit of our students. Teachers are able to interact, at the appropriate grade level, with students through our learning management system, OnCampus and GSuite, as well as via email. Our distance learning program builds off of this foundation to provide continuity of instruction in ways in which students are already familiar. 
 
  • In Upper and Middle School, our OnCampus Learning Management System and the Google Suite will support the bulk of our learning. In addition, we will be using Zoom for Education to facilitate synchronous virtual classes. We have chosen platforms that work with devices students already own. If families need to purchase a new device, we have recommendations on our website.     
  • In Lower School, students should have access to a device with internet access and the ability to participate in online virtual classes and activities. Students will be using a variety of online learning tools that have been thoughtfully chosen based on grade level. Our OnCampus Learning Management System will become the hub of assignments and activities posted.
  • A reliable internet connection is critical for distance learning, particularly when using tools that involve video and audio. We have provided students and families with some helpful tips for improving WiFi at home. 
  • The Information Technology staff is available to help support students and families during this time. Students can request support through their teacher, advisor or dean.
