Hello families,

This summer your student will be taking their School District issued Chromebook home to help with their learning and bringing it back in the fall for the new year. 

Students are responsible for the general care of the Chromebook they have been issued by the school district.  Students with Chromebooks that are broken or fail to work properly must contact the School Technology Specialist as soon as possible so that they can be taken care of properly.  If students need help over the summer, Parents/Guardians can call 425-408-7631 or make a ticket at http://go.nsd.org/studenttechhelp. 

This document provides the general Chromebook care and maintenance tips: General Chromebook Care

Most of our school communication is done through our weekly Email Blasts, sent out each Wednesday afternoon. We have received feedback that many of you have found these emails in your junk/spam mailboxes, rather than in your inbox. Please search for these emails, and direct them into your inbox, as this is our main way of communicating home with you each week and you will find that this information is a very helpful way to stay up to date & in the know! Thank you!
