1:1 Chromebook Initiative
We are thrilled to share that Clarenceville School District has been awarded a grant to bring a Chromebook to all secondary 6-12 Clarenceville students. The purpose of this program is to ensure that every student receives a Chromebook for their educational use. These Chromebooks will need to be returned at the end of the year and will be reissued in the fall. There is no cost to families to receive the Chromebook. Parents are required to complete a form prior to Chromebook distribution agreeing to District technology policies and practices. We are preparing to distribute the week of October 3-7th.
In order for your child to receive a Chromebook, the following must occur:
- Return any devices from last year.
- If you have lost the Chromebook, please pay your child’s school $225 to replace the cost of the lost Chromebook. If you are unable to pay for that amount, please contact your child’s school to set-up a payment plan. An initial payment must be received before the Chromebook is issued.
- If the device has been returned or replaced, then the parent/guardian must complete the Chromebook Agreement Form for each child in order to receive a Chromebook.
Please note that all three steps must be completed before a Chromebook can be issued.

Technology Goals
The District’s technology goals focus on to utilizing cutting-edge technology that supports learning. This drives our students, families, teachers, and administrators to embrace a visionary plan. Our plan concentrates on ideas for how the classroom will look in the future, and how all learners will thrive in a global society. A critical component of the plan will be to create a multimedia-rich environment of anywhere, anytime learning. The plan also addresses the idea that cutting-edge, innovative technology integration is futile unless a comprehensive plan is in place for ongoing professional development that meets the needs of all of our learners.
