Chromebook Repair Request & Help Page
Embedded Files
The Carthage Central School District would like to ensure that all our students have access to their online educational resources, and will provide repair to any Chromebooks issued to students provided by the school.
Chromebooks/chargers in need of repair must be brought to the school’s designated room after a repair form is submitted. A student will then receive a loaner while the broken Chromebook is repaired. The Chromebook will be returned to the school's designated room after it is fixed.
Middle and High School Students:
Please check your email for updates on your Chromebook's repair status.
The Repair Form requires authentication with a CCSD Google account.
Use the form to report students' Chromebook problems.
Cleaning
Disconnect all cables first.
Do not spray cleaning solutions directly on screen or keyboard. Spray water or mild solution on a cloth for cleaning.
Do not use abrasive solutions, e.g. alcohol or ammonia, or cloths, e.g. scrubbing sponges.
The use of a microfiber cloth is recommended.
