HMS Families: We are sending home a letter concerning a change in the Chromebook access for students in the 6th and 7th Grades. This change is being implemented to improve device accountability, ensure they are properly charged and maintained, and to reduce the risks of loss or damage. Chromebooks for 6th and 7th grade will now be on a daily check in and check out basis, and not go home with the student. 8th Grade will continue with their current device usage. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at school.
