Fall Middle School Athletic Opportunities - See Flyer Below
Student Chromebook Device Protection Plan (Optional)
All Lake Middle School students will receive a district-issued Chromebook to use for instructional purposes during the school day. Students are not allowed to use their own personal devices while here at school due to the technology and specific programs staff use during instruction.
It is encouraged that Lake Middle School families log into SmartSchoolK12 to complete the optional device protection plan. ($20)
SoWashCo Schools offers families the option of purchasing a device protection plan to protect district-issued devices from accidental damage from fire, flood, natural disasters, or power surges; and theft (with a filed police report). The cost for the optional plan is $20 annually per device.
Families who qualify for federal educational benefits, such as free and reduced-price meals, will also be eligible for reduced pricing ($10 annually per device) or free coverage. Families can sign up and pay for the device protection plan through the SmartSchoolK12 website. Please note that families who choose to waive the device protection plan will be responsible for the full cost of repair or replacement of the device. If you have any issues signing up and paying for the device protection plan, please contact fees@sowashco.org.
Please note that families who waive the device protection plan will be responsible for the full cost of repair or replacement of the device. If you have any issues signing up and paying for the device protection plan, please contact fees@sowashco.org.
Lake Middle School students will receive their devices during the first week of school.
