District-Owned Device/Electronics Collection |

Instructional planning for the 2021-2022 school year is underway. The collection of school-issued Chromebooks, iPads and mobile hotspots and associated chargers prior to the last day of school is essential to ensure digital tools are available for learning at the start of next school year.
Peter Hobart Library Books are due now. Please return them to the Peter Hobart Media Center.
In-person families: If your child has not already done so and if they were issued a school device (Chromebook, iPad, hotspots), please send items back to school on Monday, May 17. Don't forget the charger! Students will still use devices at school, but they will not bring them home again this year. We are starting the inventory process to ensure that we will have devices in the fall.
DLA families: You will need to bring your child's device and charger back to Peter Hobart on Thursday, June 10 between 9:15 and 11:30 to the office at Door 1. If this timing does not work for you or you don't have transportation, please email odermatt.thomas@slpschools.org .

We had an amazing response from yearbook donations. Thank you!
The way this community shows up to support one another is heartwarming! The yearbooks have come in. They display, beautifully, the different kind of year we’ve had.
Thank you to Laura Truett for all of her time and effort putting the images together that were sent from home and sent from classroom zoom meetings! DLA students can pick them up when they turn in their devices.
Yearbooks will be coming home with students the last week of school.
