BEFORE YOU LEAVE FOR THE SUMMER:
If you have a Chromebook cart in your classroom please make sure all Chromebooks assigned to that cart are back inside and plugged in. Be sure to include any that were taken to another classroom.
Plug the cart in for charging for at least a day or two. BUT before leaving for the summer--unplug the cart. Don't just switch it off. This should give all the Chromebooks a full charge before sitting for the next two and a half months.
Administrators:
Please make sure someone in your building is responsible for this charging routine especially for carts that are not currently in a classroom.
