School Devices

We understand that many of our students are still using school-issued computers to access their learning at home.  However, if you have a school device that you are no longer using at home, we ask that you begin turning the devices back in to school.

  • If your child is a hybrid student, we will have a drop off available Mondays and Wednesdays both in the AM and PM during arrival and dismissal.
  • If your student is in Distance Learning, our office staff will be available from 1-3pm on Fridays to receive your returned device.

At the conclusion of this school year, we will be holding a device return event where all laptops will need to be brought back to campus in preparation of in-person instruction for the 2021-22 school year.

If you have any questions, please reach out to our office.
