Grade 9 Students and Parents: Chromebook 1:1 Initiative
Posted September 2, 2016
Dear Parents/Guardians of students in Grade 9 Classes:
Welcome to the 2016-2017 school year! This is an exciting time to be a student in a grade 9 class in the Waterloo Region District School Board. All high schools will be participating in the Chromebook 1:1 Initiative. This means every student in a grade 9 class is going to receive a Chromebook for use throughout their high school career.
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 Google Apps accounts provided to them by the Board which they will use on their Chromebooks.
When will students be receiving their Chromebook?
We will be giving students their Chromebooks on the first day of school, September 6, 2016. Students are to report to the Library when they arrive at school to pick up their Chromebook.
For More Information Please Read the Chromebook Information and Details
