Educational Technology Support & Resources
Welcome to the iLearn Institute at Lenoir City Schools Digital Learning Hub.
While iLearn administrators and teachers are always available to help, they may not be able to respond immediately. This hub was created to give students and families quick access to helpful tutorials, including videos provided by Edmentum and course-specific resources created by iLearn teachers.
Whenever you have a question about a course or one of our digital learning platforms, we encourage you to check here first. We will continue to add new tutorials as we identify areas where students need additional support.
