Dear Parents,
We're issuing an urgent warning about a dangerous social media trend called the "Chromebook Challenge" or "Chromebook Durability Test." Students are intentionally damaging school-issued Chromebooks by inserting conductive materials like paper clips or pencil leads into charging or USB ports.
This creates a short circuit, leading to serious risks: overheating, smoke, sparks, and even fires. This behavior is a significant safety hazard to students and school property.
Any student caught intentionally damaging a device will face disciplinary action. Families will also be held financially responsible, with a $330 replacement fee for irreparable damage.
Please talk to your child immediately about the extreme dangers and consequences of this activity. Emphasize treating school property with respect and the serious safety risks of tampering with electronics.
Your cooperation helps us ensure a safe learning environment for everyone.
Sincerely,
David Oestreich
Principal of Roxana Junior High

Hi Junior High Parents,
State testing is approaching, and full student attendance is crucial. Participation provides valuable data for school improvement.
Students who take their time and answer all questions thoughtfully can earn house points and other prizes. Please ensure your child attends and encourage them to do their best. Their effort provides the most accurate assessment of their learning.
Thank you for your support!
