Parent Letter 2022.pdfNEW! Chromebook warning
A troubling trend has recently emerged on social media, encouraging students on ways to intentionally damage their school-issued Chromebooks. We ask families to please remind their children of the importance of ignoring any online videos or challenges that promote tampering with or misusing their devices—especially those that could result in damage or personal injury. We truly appreciate that the vast majority of our students handle their Chromebooks with care and responsibility. We are confident this positive behavior will continue as we move past this latest harmful online trend. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact our Technology Coordinator, Jim Belske, at jbelske@readington.k12.nj.us or 908-534-2874.
