IMPORTANT NOTE (added 5/3/23):
The Brother Scanners are no longer supported for software updates and support by Eduphoria Aware. If your Brother scanner is functioning and teachers are using it, you can continue to use it. Please contact Performance & Accountability (PandA@neisd.net) for support and training to move towards Aware online testing, if you have student devices to support this for your content area/grade level. However, if you have trouble with the Brother scanner and it no longer functions properly, please contact the person in charge of CRMS to determine how to dispose of the Brother scanner.
