All K-12 instructional staff that have been issued (by the technology department) and now have a district laptop (Dell Latitude 3520 or HP Probook) will exchange it for a new HP laptop beginning in November.
Arrangements will be made for when staff members will receive their new devices and turn in their existing ones.
[Note, those district staff who have been issued and now have a laptop purchased and provided by your building or department will not be exchanging at this time.]
No, unfortunately we are not in a position to sell you your laptop. As it stands, all reissuable Laptops will be repurposed within the district.
Please bring your current laptop and charging cord. You can keep your existing laptop bag.
Please review the technology blog post and communication for steps on how to save existing files on your laptop.
The technology department respectfully requests everyone’s cooperation as the logistics of device issuance and exchange involving over 1200 staffers is a daunting undertaking. Staff should be ready to exchange their current equipment for a new laptop on the day their building is scheduled. If they are not ready or are absent on their scheduled day, they are not able to turn in their device at another location. There will be a make up day for the building at a later date. If staff miss the make-up day, they will need to submit a ticket and the Building Tech will get to them as soon as possible. We appreciate everyone’s cooperation to minimize the time that needs to be spent on deployment.
Please submit a service ticket for assistance with the re-installation of overage purchased software. Please be sure to include documentation of the overage purchase so that we can help with the retrieval of licensing information.
For license retention purposes, we suggest you sign out/uninstall any licensed software you personally installed on the Laptop.
Please come with any activation/license codes for special software needs. Techs will do their best to make sure you have all of your software installed before leaving, but may need to meet at a later date.

Yes. Both Windows laptops and Chromebooks being returned to the technology department will be erased and wiped of all accounts and accompanying information. Our reimaging process will delete and overwrite any files and/or folders you may have created on the laptop, so be sure to make a backup (save to Google Drive) before turn in of anything you wish to retain. While the reimaging process will flush everything, you are also welcome to delete personal electronic files in advance of your exchange as well.
Yes, the new laptops will work with your current SMARTBoard or Projector.
