✅ Safety measures in place across the district
✅ Information about our School Police team
✅ Tips for important conversations at home
✅ Reminders about reporting concerns
...and more!

Every student in kindergarten through 12th grades will be assigned a Chromebook. Students are responsible for the care of their assigned device at all times, both at school and at home. The district strongly encourages families to purchase an Accidental Damage Protection Plan (ADPP), as explained in the online form on the Infinite Campus Parent Portal. Students will not be allowed to use school technology resources until the appropriate online form has been completed.
To purchase ADPP, visit republicschools.org/backtoschool. Payment can also be made in building offices.
The deadline to purchase is August 29. Take note that any damage that occurs without ADPP payment will incur the full cost for repairs or replacement of the device.
