Once provided with the vendor’s website, click on “The Pegasus School” option, select the appropriate grade level, and purchase the required books (new or used).

  • Bring Your Own Device Program (BYOD)

    In support of our Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program, all students will be required to purchase their own device and bring it to school every day. Doing so provides them with the responsibility to manage their own learning and to utilize technology more effectively than if using a shared device. Device specifications are outlined in the chart below.
     
    Students entering Pre-K - Grade 1 will need an iPad.
     
    Students entering Grades 2 - ⁠4 will need a Chromebook.
     
    Students entering Grades 5 - 8 will need a MacBook. If you intend for your child to use the MacBook in ninth grade and you have a sense of where your child will go to high school, you may wish to consider reviewing the high school’s minimum device specifications prior to purchasing the MacBook. Some high school requirements exceed ours.
