Additional Care and Safety Tips
Find a safe place for your student to store and charge their device each night, or when they bring it home.
Make sure there is nothing on the keyboard before closing the lid.
No food or drinks should be placed next to Chromebooks.
Keep your Chromebook SECURE. Do not leave it unattended in public spaces.
Never lift your Chromebook by the screen. And never place heavy objects on top of the Chromebook.
For any student in K-1 and 6-8 all Chromebooks include a protective case. This case should remain on the Chromebooks at all times.
For more information on student expectations, see the Chromebook Care and Safety Tips Flyer and the Electronic Device Guidelines section of the Student Code of Conduct.
Chrome Depot
Each school has a dedicated workspace for the building’s Computer Technician, known as the Chrome Depot
Each Chrome Depot has a standard set of hours in which the technician is available to assist faculty and staff. Chrome Depots with Open Door policies are also available for student visits during specific hours when permitted by their teacher. Students must have a pass to enter.
