Hardware and Connectivity

Kansas Connections Academy households will need to provide their own computer and Internet service. Please check to be sure your computer meets the minimum system requirements.

Kansas Connections Academy families may receive the following:

  • Households must provide their own computer unless they request, qualify, and are approved for a technology hardship exception*. Households that request, qualify, and are approved for a hardship exception will receive one desktop computer and monitor per household. View a description of our standard desktop systems.

We also offer comprehensive technical support for the systems we provide and complete information on proper usage of hardware and software.

Using Your Own Equipment

If you use your own computer, be sure your system meets our minimum system requirements.

* Households must apply for hardship exceptions when they enroll. To qualify, they must meet federal guidelines for free or reduced lunch and not have access to any hardware being requested. There are a limited number of hardship exceptions available, and qualification under Federal low-income guidelines does not guarantee a hardship exception will be provided.
