**Important Notice Regarding Chromebooks**
Dear Parents/Guardians,
We want to inform you that Chromebooks will not be collected at the end of the school year unless your student is in 6th grade or a senior. If you have purchased insurance, coverage will extend through the summer. If you have not purchased insurance, please note that you will be responsible for any damages. Insurance will be available for purchase again for the 2024-25 school year during fall registration.
Please ensure that your child finds a safe place to store their Chromebook over the summer. Advise them not to leave the Chromebook in a car, outside, or anywhere it may get wet. The Chromebook should be stored where pets and younger children will not have access to it. For additional information about Chromebook care, please review the Chromebook Handbook located on our district website under the Parent Quick Links section.
If you know that your child will be moving to a new school for the next school year, they must turn in their Chromebook, case, and charger before the end of this school year. HHS students turn into the library and HES turn in to their homeroom teacher.
If you find out over the summer that your child will be moving to a new school for the next school year, you will need to bring the Chromebook to the district Central Office, located on the west end of the high school building. You can call 573-209-3217 and ask for Mrs. Moore or email her at smoore@lewis.k12.mo.us for further assistance.
The LCC1 Board of Education will conduct their monthly meeting tomorrow night (5/8/24) at 6:15pm, with Open Session beginning at 6:45pm. The later time is to allow the board to attend the Students of the Month Banquet. The full agenda can be viewed here: https://bit.ly/3V0nrfz
🎬🍿Please join us May 10th for the 2nd Annual Movie Night on the football field sponsored by the Highland Elementary PTO. Gate opens at 7:30p & movie starts at dusk! 🍿🎬
Chromebooks will be collected at the end of the school year from 6th and 12th grades only. 6th-grade students will turn in their Chromebooks on Monday, May 20th, and seniors will return their Chromebooks on their last day of classes. Incoming 7th-grade students will receive a new Chromebook at the 2024-25 school registration in August. All Chromebooks must be returned in the case and with the charger. If your student is missing any of these pieces, please plan to pay for a replacement:
- Chromebook: $250.00
- Chromebook case: $30
- Chromebook charger: $25
Any items that are missing and not paid for will be charged to the student's school account.
