Online/Home Learning (OHL) Guide
CDS is initiating this new practice to support student online learning during the campus closure. As we embark upon this new journey together, please DOWNLOAD AND REVIEW the CDS Online/Home Learning Guide for your reference.

Online/Home Learning (OHL) Requirements
There are TWO essential requirements to prepare for Online/Home Learning:

1. DEVICE/HARDWARE: for learning consistencies, we recommend the student to use a dedicated iPad or any Apple Computers (MacBook, iMac, Mac Mini) as what the student uses at school.
