Lake Stevens Middle School has been a Verizon Initiative Learning school since 2019. The Verizon Innovative Learning Schools initiative provides iPads for all students to use at school and home. These devices have WIFI connection and come with data that the students can access outside the school.
The main components of the Verizon Innovative Schools initiative include:
✓ Access to 10GB of data monthly year-round for all students and teachers
along with an iPad
✓ Professional Learning opportunities for teachers
✓ STEM opportunities for all students
Dating back to the 2021 -2022 school year Lake Stevens Middle received a grant to create a 5 G Innovative Lab that would include learning resources that now give LSMS students the ability to take elective courses that include opportunities to work with Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, Robotics, Coding and Artificial Intelligence.
