The District is now loaning Chromebooks to families in order to support their child’s remote learning. Please note that Chromebooks need a working internet connection. If you would like to borrow a Chromebook for your child to use, please contact me as soon as possible and I will put in a request.
Parents,
During this extended break we want to make sure that students have the resources they need to continue learning. My team has worked to put together important websites and activities to keep your child engaged during this time at home. Please refer to the calendar for daily activities. You can contact me via email or Seesaw for any questions or support I can offer during this at home learning experience. My email is: goodk@dearbornschools.org
