Families, we're receiving reports that Spectrum is having an outage. If your student's unable to connect to their morning meeting or the internet at the moment hang tight. Though we acknowledge if you don't have internet it might be difficult to get this message. We're trying to get some information and will work on some next steps. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Families, as we've done in previous years we will begin sending Chromebooks home with students on a daily basis today, December 1st, 2025. This is to be prepared in the event that students need them for possible NTI days in the future. I know that there is potential inclement weather for tomorrow, so I want to be clear that at this time no announcement about tomorrow has been decided and any announcement would be made at the district level. At SES our plan has always been to begin sending Chromebooks home following Thanksgiving break to get our students and staff in the habit of bringing their Chromebooks home and returning them to school each day. So regardless of the forecast, we would be doing so beginning today.
Your student will have a Chromebook, a charger, and either a clamshell case that stays on the Chromebook or fabric case that stores the Chromebook. We need each of those items to be brought back to school each day fully charged if they are used at home. We will continue to send Chromebooks home through the winter months and will notify families if/when we will begin have them remain at school. However, for the foreseeable future you can plan on your student coming home with the above items, including over breaks and weekends. I appreciate your help with this and please reach out to your child's teacher if you need clarification or to me if you have any questions. Thank you and have a great day!
Mr. Baragary
