Chromebook Responsibilities
To ALMS Parents and Students,
As a Middle School student, you are required to come to school with your district-provided chromebook charged. The district-provided chromebook is also your responsibility; if it's in your backpack, locker, on a bus, or at home, you must keep it protected from being damaged or lost/stolen.
Please refer to the Device Loaner Form, which you have signed with your parent/guardian, and review the terms and conditions listed on the form both inside and outside of school (scroll down to the bottom of the form to see all terms and conditions).
To all parents/guardians, please speak with your child regarding Chromebook care and responsibilities. Some of the computers are damaged due to students spilling liquids, tossing them to the ground during recess, getting knocked around in a backpack, or dropping them. Damaged Chromebooks are subject to fees. You may want to consider purchasing a case as was indicated on the school supply list.
Upcoming 8th grade activities and events
Summer Academy Contest
Dear Grade 2 - 8 Students,
The City School District of New Rochelle is excited about summer learning, which is built around student interests, involves teamwork, and has a camp-like atmosphere. Will you help us name our summer learning program? The name should get students as excited about summer learning and growing as we are. It's going to be a fun program and we want everyone to know about it! The Name Our K-8 Summer Learning Program contest is open until Wednesday, April 27, 2022 at 5:00 pm. We hope you will share your ideas!
