At the end of student's lease they have the option to purchase their Chromebook for $1. When a Chromebook is no longer owned by the district it is usually deactivated. Furthermore if the student has graduated, their Chrome Accounts will be closed. This makes the Chromebook very useless unless an adult associated with the Chromebook fills out the Deprovisioning Waiver. That allows us to release the district management and return the Chromebook to its unmanage state, as if it was purchased in a store. It will not have district software or give access to the student's accounts but most Chrome software is free and will automatically be on the Chromebook waiting to be set up with a new account.
The Deprovisioning Waiver has a line for parent signature but another option is for it to be completed by and returned using an adult's email account that is registered in Skyward.
Please note, without knowing the serial number (S/N number) we cannot deprovision the Chromebook. It is often labeled on a sticker on the bottom of the Chromebook labeled 'S/N:'. Alternatively a person can press the two keys: Alt+V while on the login page and the Chromebook will display the S/N number. The form identifies the email address to send the for in.
