Receiving Your Chromebook
-
5th-grade students will receive a new Chromebook and charger and will use the same device through the 8th grade.
-
9th-grade students will receive a new Chromebook and charger and will use the same device through the 12th grade.
Tips for keeping track of your device:
-
Take a picture of the asset sticker* and model/serial number tag
-
Put a sticker with your name on it on the top
-
Put masking tape or colorful tape on the cord with your name on it.
*All Chromebooks will be labeled with an Owasso Public Schools asset tag, barcode, and model name plates (examples below).
These tags provide information that allows us to determine the name of the student to which the specific Chromebook has been assigned. Labels may not be modified or tampered with in any way.
