Fentons 1:1 Chromebook Initiative

Fenton Chromebook

Fentons 1:1 Chromebook Initiative places a device in the hands of every student, grades Y5-12. This allows us to eliminate computer labs while increasing computer access to every student in the district. Grades Y5-5 students will each have access to a Chromebook in their classroom. Grades 6-12 students will have access to Chromebooks daily during the school day as well as have the opportunity to bring the Chromebook home.

Highlights of the Chromebook Initiative include:

  • A Chromebook for every student in grades Y5-12

  • Google Apps for Education accounts for every student

  • County-supported content filtering for web safety and security

  • Web-based curriculum & resources

  • Anywhere, Anytime Learning
