Continuing Teachers: Complete the form to register for picking up a device.

New Teachers: Upon completing hiring with HR, you will receive an email from the SFUSD Department of Technology with a form to register for picking up a device. This email goes out within 72 hours after your hiring is completed in HR, as there are additional steps to onboard you into SFUSD's systems, including receiving an SFUSD email account. Once you complete the request form, you will receive a follow-up email with instructions for retrieving your device from a secure locker and setting up the device in the Central Office Lobby at 555 Franklin St. San Francisco, CA 94102. If you do not receive this email after submitting the request form, please email help@sfusd.edu and request a device pick-up.

For questions, please email help@sfusd.edu with "Device Request" using your SFUSD email address. Tickets will enable the DoT Team to verify eligibility in advance and greatly speed up the process, saving you valuable time. Those dropping in without a processed ticket may take twice as long to get a device or wait simply to discover they are unable to receive a device at this time.
