Chromebooks

  • Technology has become an integral tool in education.  Oak Harbor Public Schools is proud to issue one Chromebook for each student in our K-12 programs.  

    Students who are transitioning buildings will return their Chromebook devices yearly as will our Homeconnection and Oak Harbor Virtual Academy Students.  All students who are leaving the district will need to return their devices before leaving.  

    Students who will return their Chromebooks at the end of the year:

    • 6th Grade Students (or 5-6)
    • 8th Grade Students
    • 12th Grade Students
    • OHVA
    • HomeConnection

    Thanks to the generous and continued support of the community through local levies, we are able to accomplish this amazing feat. Please call our IS office at 360.279.5589 with any questions.
