SMS parents, we will be collecting devices from 6th graders, 7th graders, and students not returning (Chromebook, charger, and bag) at the end of the school year. Current 8th graders will keep their device over the summer and take it with them to CHS at the start of the new school year in August.
We recommend that you complete an assessment of your child’s Chromebook. All devices were new this year. If there are issues with your student’s device, we encourage you to send it to your school librarian before the end of the school year so it can be sent for repairs. Insurance expires each year and will need to be purchased again for next school year in August.
