Employees from Shelby County State Bank visited all three second grade classrooms for a Financial Literacy lesson. Students listened to a presentation on different services the bank provides, played a review game, and each received a $1 coin. Thank you SCSB for visiting our classrooms.
OABCIG Schools is retiring and selling our current Acer Chromebooks. We will be purchasing new devices for the next school year. These Acer Chromebooks were purchased on 2020 and have been used for the past four years. They have a touchscreen and will fold flat to be used in tablet mode. Each sale will include the Chromebook and charger. Some may come in a case, some may not. Each chromebook is $50.00.
The OABCIG IT department will assess each device before it is sold, however devices are being sold AS-IS and OABCIG will not warranty the device after payment and pick up.
If you are interested in purchasing an Acer Chromebook from our retiring fleet, please fill out this form. https://forms.gle/RAokHefum7pKgVgEA
If you have questions, please reach out to Julie Weeda at jweeda@oabcig.org
