Chromebook Return Reminder

On this day in 1936, it was a mathematician–Alan Turing–who introduced the world to modern computers by writing that a machine could theoretically solve any mathematical problem. In 1950, Turing predicted that within 50 years computers will convincingly imitate humans—later known as the “Turing Test.” Although computers have already passed the Turing Test, students will need Chromebooks to complete the Math EQAO assessment in mid-June. Please return all Chromebooks to your Learning Commons by Monday, June 3rd.
