Reidmount Discovery School has a Zoom Corporate account unlike the Free (Basic) version everyday consumers use. This provides enhanced encryption and customized security privacy features for our classes. Below are a few security measures Reidmount Discovery School has taken to secure the virtual learning class environment for your child, yourself and our teachers.

Note it is easier to login into meetings and see class schedules with the Zoom Client installed and offers enhanced functionality during class. - Classrooms are password protected.
