Basic Supplies for online components to PB Middle School coursework
Many of our courses have an online component. It is helpful to have a computer at home or one you can use near your home such as at a public library. Computers are also available in classrooms where students are staying for tutoring or afterschool assistance, during lunch and open hours at the PB Middle library.
