Let's partner together to make every school day count!
Due to impending weather, all after-school activities have been canceled today, August 20th.
Every student uses a district-issued Chromebook during the school day, and students in grades 9–12 also take devices home to complete schoolwork.
Take a minute to review the quick care tips in the graphic with your student and talk about responsible use—keeping the device safe, charged, and ready for learning.
