New Chromebook Distribution Reminders
Important Information
Walsh will have opportunities for students to exchange their Chromebook before the beginning of the school year. If you are not able to make it before school starts, all students will exchange Chromebooks the second week of school.
Additional Reminders:
New students can join at the events corresponding to their grade level to pick up a Chromebook or they can wait for the second week of school.
If you have keyboard damage or lost your charger please pay online in advance to speed up the process. Be prepared to provide your receipt.
Do not put stickers on your new device.
Peel off any stickers your old Chromebook might have.
If your student received a new Chromebook in May with a case, no need to exchange.
Teachers will not be requiring students to use chromebooks until after 8/27/25.
