Chromebook Replacement

On Wednesday Dec. 21 and Thursday Dec 22, out of an abundance of caution, we will be replacing about 150 older Chromebooks at SMS and SHS; only the ones with the white covers. This is due to reports of the device malfunctioning and over-heating during the charging process.  While there have been no reported negative effects of the over-heating, we are responding proactively.  Students who have Chromebooks which need replacement, and their parents, have been contacted by email. Students and parents who did not receive an email about replacement may disregard this message.  Questions may be directed to stowetech@lssuvt.org.
