Students going into grade 4 will need their own Chromebook next year

Dear Parents of Students going into Grade 4:


EICS will be continuing with the “Bring Your Own Device” for learning known as “One to One” for the 2022-2023 school year for students in grade 4 and higher. Our IT Department has recommended a Chromebook for students in grade 4 as the optimal device.


We currently have some district refurbished ASUS ($40.00) and LENOVO ($20.00) Chromebooks available for purchase to be used by the grade 3 students going into grade 4 in the fall at Madonna Catholic School. Each comes with a power cord. These machines are not under any warranty.


Please call the office to request the purchase of one if you’re interested. The charge for the Chromebook would be applied to your child’s account. Once paid, a Chromebook would be issued to your child.

Alternatively, Staples has provided some information on purchasing a device from them see PDF letter below.
