Purchasing A Charger for your Child's Chromebook

As many of you now know, the Chromebook assigned to your child is used daily at school and will be your child's educational lifeline should they need to participate in asynchronous learning. If your child's charger is lost or damaged you may purchase a new one though our Online Service portal on our school website: http://lcps.org/evergreen. Should your child's charger be deemed to be defective, LCPS will replace this free of charge. Below is a video with step by step direction on how to use our new Online Service Portal. If you have any questions please reach out to jessica.cruz@lcps.org or cassandra.marra@lcps.org.


Here is a video you can watch if you need to purchase a new charger. The cost for a new charger is $30.00.
