A.M.Y. Northwest Middle School Digital Device Distribution Plan

Chrome Book Distribution Details
April 2nd and April 3rd

Please read all information carefully so that we can keep you and our staff as safe as possible.

A.M.Y. Northwest Families,
We are excited to launch the Chromebook
Loaner Program to ensure that all District students
have access to online materials while schools are closed due to the COVID-19 (coronavirus)
pandemic. If your child does not have access to a device at home for learning, one can be
provided through this program. There is no cost for this program and no obligation to
participate. If you have not responded to the email send or remind messages asking who
needs a device please do so. We have counted devices based on the number of replies
that we have received, to be the most prepared please respond if you have not. All
devices must be returned once school reopen. If you are fortunate and have appropriate
computer and internet access at home for your child, we ask that you please reserve
the program for those who do not.
Maintaining the safety and well-being of our staff, students and families is a top priority. Please follow the instructions below to help maintain a safe environment while the devices are distributed:

●  In order to minimize the number of people on site, we ask that only the parent or legal guardian come to pick up the Chromebook. Children are advised, if possible, to stay at home.
●  Bring a form of photo ID to verify that you are the parent or legal guardian (government-issued ID, student ID, Work ID). We will not be able to release a Chromebook without proper ID.
●  If the parent/guardian is feeling sick, we ask that you stay home and send a healthy representative that is on your students emergency contact with your ID and theirs to your child’s school to pick up the device. Please call school to let us know who is coming to get the device in this scenario.
●  To help the process go quickly, please keep conversation with staff to a minimum.
