technology rules & expectations

Students and parents are required to sign a Chromebook contract and decide on insurance with the district before they are allowed to use the Chromebook and take it home. 

With our new technology comes some learning. We will focus at the beginning of the year on learning what we will be using on the Chromebooks. Many assignments will be done on the Chromebook, so it is very important that students charge their Chromebooks every night and they need to have it with them every day!

Chromebook Rules:

1. Always sit down while using the Chromebooks.

2. If you are asked to move for any reason, carry the Chromebook with two hands and hold the Chromebook by the base, not the cover.

3. No banging, slamming, or hitting the Chromebook or keyboard.

4. Stay focused on the activity and raise your hand if you need help.

5. Do not visit pages that are not directly related to your assignment.

6. Do not touch someone else’s Chromebook or log into someone else’s account(s).  

7. No gum, food, or drinks allowed near your Chromebook.

8. Stop when directed and shut down before closing the Chromebook.

9. Be gentle with the keys on the keyboard and do not attempt to remove them.

10. Place your Chromebook on a sturdy level surface to avoid accidental falls. Dropping a Chromebook can damage it.

11. Charge your Chromebook nightly AND have it in school with you every day!

12. Chromebooks are for school use only. Please don’t allow your siblings to use or play on them.
