August, 2023
Dear Parents/Guardians of the Class of 2027 and New Students,
MRHS has implemented a full one to one (1:1) Chromebook initiative since the 2018-2019 school year. This means that every child has access to a state of the art Chromebook twenty-four hours per day, seven days per week, at school and at home during the school year and summer months.
We are currently preparing over two hundred Chromebooks for the Class of 2027 and our new students in grades 10-12. Chromebooks will be distributed to each student on Wednesday, August 30, 2023 between 9:30am and 12:30pm in the MRHS Innovation Center (use Door 15 to enter the building near the Board of Education Office Entrance). Students must come to pick up the Chromebook with a parent/guardian during the following time windows:
Last names starting with letters A-I - 9:30am-10:30am
Last names starting with letters J-R- 10:30am-11:30am
Last names starting with letters S-Z- 11:30am-12:30pm
Your child will also receive their MRHS email and other account information during pick up. If you do not receive the summer mailing by August 10th please call the Main Office immediately at 973-389-2821.
In order for your child to obtain her/his Chromebook for participation in the 1:1 program they must satisfy two requirements.
First, every MRHS student and their parent/guardian is required to view and acknowledge our virtual, fifteen minute, 1:1 Family Training video that is now available on our website, www.mrhs.net. Each student is also required to read the MRHS Student Mobile Device Handbook. Please use this link to access both- https://www.mrhs.net/apps/form/form.PASSAIC-D.s6h7nCm.1dM.
Parents/guardians should also read and review the handbook with their child. Electronic acknowledgement of the parent/student signature form is required before a student can obtain their Chromebook on August 30th. Students will sign the form physically when they report for device pick up.
Second, participation in the 1:1 program requires an annual $20 usage/self-insure fee. This fee is paid each year of attendance at MRHS and will be used for repairs, maintenance, and replacement of devices. Please ensure $20 in cash is brought to the Chromebook pick up on August 31, 2022.
Finally, please be advised that your child’s school ID picture will also be taken when he/she comes to pick up the Chromebook and the ID will be issued at that time.
We look forward to seeing you on August 30, 2023! Please feel free to reach out to me at [email protected] if you have any questions.
Thank you for your time. Enjoy the rest of summer!
Sincerely,
John Coviello
