ER9 Student Device Expectations-Middle School
&
ER9 Acceptable Use Agreement for Student Use of District's Computer Systems
School Technology for Students--Overview:
All JRMS students will be assigned a Chromebook with a protective case to use for the entire school year. They will also receive a charger to keep at home. Students will bring their school-issued Chromebooks to and from school. No personal devices are allowed.
Key Highlights of Student Responsibility Statements:
I will charge my Chromebook each night to full capacity and bring it to school every day!
I will use my school-issued device for academic purposes only
I will not send personal messages to friends using my school Gmail.
I will not conduct internet searches for non-school-related topics or use my device to access social media.
I will NOT play video games on my Chromebook.
During the first weeks of school, teachers will take time to thoroughly review the ER9 Middle School device expectations (linked above) as well as the newly updated ER9 Acceptable Use Policy (linked above). Students will have a chance to ask questions to gain a full understanding of these documents and the outlined expectations. These documents will also be reviewed by parents when completing the PowerSchool Sign-Offs in late August.
This program is designed to protect students and families if the Chromebook issued to a student is damaged or malfunctions due to no fault of the student. Students and parents may be charged for any intentional device damage, which is not covered by the policy.
Families can choose to purchase insurance coverage for the school-based device. More information will be provided at the end of August.
