Special Note: Important Info for Grade 6 Parents: 19-20 Chromebook 1-to-1 Program

Dear Parents,
The Bedford School District is asking parents of students currently in grade 6 to select an option for your student to participate in the District’s Chromebook 1-to-1 Program at Ross A. Lurgio Middle School for the 2019-2020 school year. We believe this program is a tremendous opportunity for our students and teachers to improve teaching and learning.
Our Chromebook 1-to-1 Website has detailed information for parents regarding the program and we encourage parents to review the 1-to-1 Program and Parent Resources sections.
Parents are asked to purchase a Chromebook device for their student choosing one of the following options:
  • Purchase a Chromebook on your own
  • Purchase a Chromebook directly from the district (accidental breakage/theft insurance for the 19-20 school year included)
For families that do not opt into the Chromebook 1-to-1 Program, a loaner Chromebook device will be provided to the student during the school day. The loaner device must be checked in and out daily and will not be allowed to leave the school.
Please click on this Program Selection Form link to submit your choice for your student to participate in this exciting program. We are asking that parents submit this form for their student by June 5th, 2019 so that we can secure the best quantity pricing and plan for those purchasing from the District. You will receive a confirmation of your program option selection and further information will be communicated during the summer based on the program option you have chosen for your student. Even if you are not purchasing a device through the district, it is important that you complete the form and select the appropriate participation option.
Thank you!
