SO, MY QUESTION IS? Should I bring her laptop with us? Will it work OK down in WDW? Do I need to bring a router with us? I hear the Polynesian has internet access. Does that mean access for us to use "their" computer. Also, will it cost anything? Sorry, if I sound confused...but I don't have too much knowledge about that stuff.

If you don't want to pay the cost of Internet each day ($10-12 a day) you could copy the pages in the book she needs and ask the teacher what she needs to have done when she returns. The charges will add up by the end of your trip, hopefully the teachers will understand and help you out.

I would expect a student to have work done when he/she returns from a vacation. I know it takes time but they are already missing a lot of class time so they need to be caught up when they return so they don't fall even more behind.
