Foresight of investing in Chromebooks Speaking from the Portland metro area , Brown spoke about the successful roll-out of approximately 12,000 Chromebooks to students that needed one during the pandemic so students could learn from home , engage with their teachers in Google Meet sessions , access Google Classroom , digital curriculum and other online learning resources . In addition to distributing Chromebooks , NCSD provided meals and internet to families in need . According to Brown , in the US 9 to 10 million families currently do not have internet access at home and nearly 13 million households did not have enough food in 2020 .
Brown said NCSD previously invested in Chromebooks for access to online learning resources and digital curriculum . “ Therefore , when the pandemic hit in March 2020 the district was able to respond quickly to get these resources into the hands of students who needed it .”
