Dear Parents/Guardians of students in Grade 9 Classes:
Welcome to the 2020-2021 school year! Every student in a grade 9 class in the WRDSB receives a Chromebook for school use.
What is a Chromebook?
A Chromebook is a mobile computer that runs on Google’s Chrome Operating System. These machines are designed to be used primarily while connected to the internet. They are optimized to allow the use of Google applications (i.e. Google Drive, Calendar, Gmail, Google Classroom, etc.).
WRDSB students already have G Suite accounts provided to them by the Board which they will be able to use on their Chromebooks.
When will students be receiving their Chromebook?
Gr. 9 Preston students may pick up their Chromebook on Monday, August 31 from 1:00pm to 3:00pm. See the schedule below and MAP for specific times and locations based on last names.
A to G – 1-2pm Main Entrance
H to L – 1-2pm Event Entrance
M to R – 2-3pm Main Entrance
S to Z – 2-3pm Event Entrance
Please bring the completed Agreement form to receive your Chromebook. Please follow all health & safety precautions including wearing a face mask when you arrive at the school.
If you are unable to pick up your Chromebook on August 31, please return the Agreement form to your homeroom teacher on your first day of class to receive your Chromebook.
