Connect and Reflect with Mr. Perrone
Connect and Reflect with Mr. Perrone
Connection and reflection are two important parts of MJS ONE. It is important to stay connected with our families as each of you play an important role in your child’s education. Over the course of the school year, I will be hosting Connect and Reflect sessions with our families. This will provide an opportunity for families to come together with me in person or virtually to connect and reflect on any topics relating to MJS. We will host our first Connect and Reflect with Mr. Perrone on Thursday October 17th at 9:30am.

Technology Reminder about Student Chromebook Usage
Technology Reminder about Student Chromebook Usage
In Madison, we utilize a 1:1 Chromebook model where all students (grades 6-12) receive a district owned Chromebook to utilize during the school day and at home. While there is no cost for the use of the Chromebook, it is important that Chromebooks be maintained and handled in a responsible way. As we continue to move through the school year, we wanted to utilize this time as a reminder for our students and families about the importance of handling Chromebooks with care to prevent damage to the device. The district has expectations and protocols that are listed on the district website that we continue to follow at the building level.
We would like to highlight the specific section regarding lost and damaged chromebooks as a reminder to all parents and guardians:
In the event a Chromebook, case, or charger is lost or damaged beyond repair and deemed to be intentional, excessive, neglectful or student misuse, parents/guardians are responsible for paying the cost of replacement equipment.
Costs:
Chromebook - $365.00
Charger - $47.00
Case - $20.00
Other - Will be quoted by the Tech Department
Note: Final assessment of damage and fines are determined by the Technology Department.
Students are also responsible for the care of any loaners they use. Damage to loaners is subject to the same rules as permanently assigned Chromebooks.
In case of theft, parents/guardians are required to file a formal police report with the Madison Police Department.
Below are the direct links from the district website that pertains to Chromebook care and protocols followed for lost/damaged Chromebooks.
