My Chromebook is Lost or Stolen

Chromebooks should never be stored in an unsupervised area.  They should be securely stored or locked away when not in use. 

If a Chromebook is lost or stolen, it is the student, parent, or guardian’s responsibility to report it immediately to your school:

• Report a lost or stolen device immediately to your school:  Pathfinder Lost or Stolen Device Reporting Form

  • A police report is required in the event the Chromebook or Hotspot has been stolen. It is the responsibility of the student, parent, or guardian to file the police report as the device was in their possession. You may contact the technology coordinator at Pathfinder if you need device details for the report.

  • Parents/Guardians/Students may be charged for the full replacement cost of a hotspot that has been lost or stolen.

  • Once reported to the school, we will reach out about replacement
