Chromebooks 

Parents - Please know that while we are excited to have the use of Chromebooks for our students, we've encountered a high number being dropped off throughout the day. We will no longer take Chromebooks as a drop off item. If your child forgets his/her Chromebook, they will have use of a laptop at school.

 

Please also caution your child about leaving their Chromebook on the bus. If a Chromebook is left on the bus, you will need to contact the DeKalb County Transportation Department.
