Parents/guardians, we need your help! Many students are coming to school without charging their chromebooks OR they've lost their charger. This causes issues for our teachers to be able to give instruction effectively.
Per BCPS policy, lost chargers are NOT covered under the one free repair part. Every student was provided a charger at the beginning of the school year. If they have lost theirs, it is the family's responsibility to purchase another one. All chromebooks use a USB-C type. Something like this from Amazon would work well: https://a.co/d/9ACiclx
