IMPORTANT DATES TO REMEMBER
July 17th – You can’t start the process of paying for your Chromebook Insurance or complete the student Intent to Return Verification until this date.
July 19th, 20th and 24th – All Chromebooks will be issued for 3rd, 6th and 9th grade students from 8:30 – 5:30 at Lenoir City High School. Please complete the student Intent to Return Verification before you arrive. Details can be found in the information below.

All students must pay for their Chromebook insurance, and complete the Intent to Return Verification, prior to the first day of school. An insurance charge of $35.00 will be assessed for each device. This insurance charge will cover any accidental damage to the Chromebook throughout the year. If you wish to pay with a credit card you can complete the warranty purchase and sign all of the associated agreements online. If you do not have a credit card you can purchase a one-time debit card at a local retail store to make the online payment of $35. If you use a prepaid debit card please be aware that a small fee will be assessed for using a card so you may want to build in a couple of extra dollars for that fee.
All of the required student and parent Chromebook agreement forms as well as the required student handbook agreement will be part of the Intent to Return Verification that families are also required to complete through their Skyward Family Access Accounts. Returning Student Data Verification will open in Skyward on July 17th, 2023.
