I’m sure that you have already downloaded the Remind 101 app for your mobile device. In order to receive reminders from Ms. Colter and myself please text the following message @dbc668 to 81010.
Free Meal Pick Up Provided by Dearborn Public Schools:
Starting today (March 17th), Dearborn Public Schools will offer free pickup breakfast and lunch to all of our students at any of the following six school locations: Fordson High School, Dearborn High, Edsel Ford High School, McCollough/Unis Middle School, Salina Intermediate and Woodworth.
The grab-and-go meals will be available from 10 a.m. to noon from now through April 3rd. Hopefully they will extend it over spring break (April 6th through 10th)
This is a great resource and if it can be useful to your family any child age 18 or younger is invited to receive a meal. Be sure to bring your younger siblings along with you so you can all have enough to eat.
CHROME BOOKS
We will be passing out chromebooks for students who need one. Chromebooks will be passed out Thursday, March 19th from 10:00am to 1:00 pm and Friday, March 20th from 10:00am to 1:00pm.
Distribution of chrome books will be in the back parking lot, next to the Freshmen Academy. Parents must come to the school, present their child’s student id and sign a form to receive a chromebook. Only one chromebook will be given per family. If your family received one from the middle school or elementary, we will not provide another one.
Once a student receives the chromebook, they need to sign on and check their teachers’ blogs for assignments. Reminder Chrome books will not, I repeat will not be given away without Student ID
We ask that everyone exercises patience during this process. Our goal is to support all our students during this difficult time.
