Many CUSD families do not have computer access at home for students or parents.
Now
thanks to a partnership between the Chico Unified School District and
Computers For Classrooms, these families may be eligible to get a
computer through the Computers for Families program.
Families
that qualify for the Free or Reduced Lunch Program or if your children
attend a CUSD "Title I" school are eligible to acquire a computer.
If
you think you may be eligible for a computer, contact the student's
teacher, counseling office, or school office manager for an application.
You can also download the application by clicking on the following
link: Voucher for Student Computers .
To
receive your computer bring your signed voucher to Computers for
Classrooms between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. weekdays. The
address and directions are printed on the voucher. OR, see online map
