To our families, thank you for trusting us with your children. We are grateful to be part of their journey and look forward to a wonderful year together.
Students, come through our doors ready to learn, make memories, and make this year count.

The district remains focused on ensuring our resources and technology program are both sustainable and responsibly managed. We want to share a reminder of how Chromebooks are distributed and managed across the district. A new Chromebook currently costs approximately $458 per student, and each student will receive two new Chromebooks during their time at Keystone—one in 4th grade and one in 9th grade. The $30 annual technology fee helps support the ongoing maintenance and management of the devices, as well as the software and technology services associated with them.
- Students in the early grades will continue to have fully functional devices. Chromebooks will be monitored and maintained, and devices will be replaced as needed if they are no longer functioning properly.
- Families will not have the option to keep previously issued devices. All senior devices will be collected, refurbished when appropriate, and redistributed to students in grades K–3. This will help us maximize the useful life of our technology investment and ensure our resources are used efficiently.
This process allows Keystone to continue providing students with the technology they need while being thoughtful and responsible with district resources. Our goal is to provide reliable, functional technology—not simply new technology—and to make sure every Chromebook is used to its fullest potential.
