Chromebook Care

Students are responsible for, and benefit from, care of their District­-owned Chromebook. Chromebooks that are damaged or not working properly may impact a student’s ability to participate fully in their classes.

The 1:1 Guidelines detail care recommendations. Here are some of the important ones.

• • • Fully charge the Chromebook before the start of each school day.
      • Remember that you are responsible for your work AND that teachers can penalize you for non-participation.
    • Insert and remove cables carefully.
    • Keep the Chromebook and its charger away from water, direct heat, direct sunlight, food, drinks, small children and pets.
    • Do not leave the Chromebook in an unlocked or unsupervised location.
    • Always transport the Chromebook in a padded sleeve in your bag or backpack.
      Never place anything else in the sleeve.
      Never over stuff your pack or bag.
    • Always remove the charger and all cable before storing or transporting.
    • Do not use an aftermarket or non-issued charger as this can result in device damage.

• Do not lift Chromebooks by the screen.
• Clean the screen with a soft, dry anti-static, or micro-fiber cloth. Do not use window cleaner or any type of liquid.
• Do not place anything on top of the Chromebook.
• Do not place anything on the keyboard before closing the lid (e.g., pens, pencils, notebooks).
• Do not wedge the Chromebook into bag, backpack, drawer or locker.
• Do not poke or draw on the screen with any sharp object (pen, pencil, etc.)
