Dear NES Families,
Each year, the $35 Chromebook fee helps cover the cost of one free repair and provides essential monitoring software that helps keep your students safe online.
If you haven’t paid yet, there are several convenient options:
💻 Pay online via School Cash Online
💵 Send in cash or a check (payable to NES) with your student
🧾 Need to pay in parts? We’re happy to work with you!
The payment due date is September 30th.
A fee waiver and household income form were sent home at the start of the school year. If you need additional support with school fees, please don’t hesitate to use those resources.
⚠️ Important Reminder: As we head into winter, students who have not paid their Chromebook fees will not be able to take their devices home in the event of inclement weather or NTI (Non-Traditional Instruction) days.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to:
📧 kelly.owen@bullitt.kyschools.us
📧 beth.blissett@bullitt.kyschools.us
Thank you for your continued support!
