MS 74 Device Loan Program

Students at Nathaniel Hawthorne can accept a Chromebook or iPad from our school to use in class. The device will be handed out mid-September by your child's Homeroom Teacher. It is expected that students have access to a device for daily classwork. Students will not need to have a device for the first two (2) weeks of school. Families will be asked to complete a “Device Loan Agreement” that states the specific guidelines around accepting the device. The Loan Agreement will be handed out to students in Homeroom Class.  These devices are for use in the building every day and can be used at home over all breaks (Including summer!) 

Students have the option to refuse a school device and acknowledge the use of a personal device for class activities.
