Students Logging in to Clever
The Clever badge along with the Clever App will give your student access to all of the learning platforms they will use throughout the school year. This badge can be used by your child to login to our systems without having to remember or type a username and passphrase. All students will be provided with a printed version of their Badge to be kept in their homebase.
Grades 3 - 5
Equipment
All 3rd to 5th Grade Homebase classes will have a cart of Chromebooks stored in their classrooms, and students will be assigned a device at the beginning of the year. Students will receive a technology orientation and login credentials to access their device during the first few weeks of school. 5th Grade students will have an additional device sent home during the first weeks of school, for classwork purposes.
Logging in with Google Credentials
All 3rd to 5th grade students will use their Riverdale credentials to log in to their Chromebooks. Student logins consist of their first initial of their first name, their last name, and the graduation year @riverdale.edu.
Device Replacement and Repair Policy
(Pertinent only to 5th graders)
If a device is lost, stolen or destroyed/damaged beyond repair while off-campus (including at home and during transit to/from school), the family will be responsible for the full replacement cost of:
- $430 for a Chromebook.
We purchase accidental damage coverage and most broken screens and other minor issues will be covered under those policies. If the damage is beyond the scope of those policies we will at our discretion and best judgment ask families to pay for the repair or a device replacement.
Families are responsible for replacing broken chargers with the equivalent OEM (Lenovo) product (contact us for details if you find yourself in that situation). If there is a manufacturing defect or other non-user issue, we will investigate and determine the best course of action.
