Essential Chromebook Information for Families

Summer is approaching quickly, and with it come various Chromebook transitions depending on student grade levels. See the list below for your child’s grade.

  • Kindergarten through 4th Grade: Chromebooks stay at school over the summer and students will be assigned a Chromebook in their new classroom in the fall. Students enrolled in the summer semester will have access to a Chromebook at their summer semester site.
  • 5th Grade through 7th Grade: Students keep their Chromebooks at home over the summer.
  • Families may opt to have the Chromebook and charger stored at the school by reaching out to the school. Students will get a Chromebook assigned to them when they return in the fall. It may or may not be the same device they return in the spring.
  • 8th Grade: Chromebooks and chargers will be collected. Students will receive a new Chromebook when they enter 9th grade.
  • 9th Grade through 11th Grade: Students keep their Chromebooks and chargers at home over the summer.
  • 12th Grade: Graduating seniors turn in their Chromebooks and chargers at a date and time set by your high school.
  • Summer Semester for 5th-12th grade students: Students attending summer semester will keep the device through the end of summer school. Students in grades 8 and 12 will turn in their Chromebooks at the end of the summer semester.
  • Hot Spots: If your family has a district Wi-Fi hotspot, you should turn it into your child’s school before leaving for summer. 
    • If you need to keep it for summer school, it will be active through the end of July and can be turned into the school in the fall to be reactivated.
