Student Chromebook Information

Parents and Guardians, 

I am writing to inform you about the current status of the Chromebook  technology issued to our students. As you may be aware, we have provided preexisting Chromebooks to students to ensure there is no disruption in their learning while we  await the arrival of brand new Chromebooks. We understand that these devices may not be as up-to-date as the new ones, but they are fully functional and equipped to support our students’ educational needs in the interim. We anticipate the new Chromebooks will arrive within the next couple of weeks. Once they are here, we will promptly distribute them to all   students.  In the meantime, if your child encounters any issues with their current device, please have you child stop by the front office.  

We are committed to providing any necessary assistance to ensure a smooth and productive learning experience. Thank you for your under-standing and patience as we work to enhance our technology resources.
