1 to 1 Chromebooks

Students will have a Chromebook assigned to them in the same way textbooks are assigned.

All Chromebooks will be handed out with sleeves that must remain with the Chromebook at all times. Students must maintain the Chromebook, charger and sleeve as they do textbooks and return them at the end of the year. Every effort will be made to assign the same Chromebook to your child the following year and throughout their high school career.

If a student’s Chromebook needs repair, it is the student’s responsibility to bring it to the Library Media Center (LMC) as soon as possible.

Should repairs be necessary, a loaner Chromebook will be checked out from the LMC to the student. Teachers, students, and parents are prohibited from attempting repairs on district-issued Chromebooks.
