Chromebook Help
Chromebook help is available from 8:15 - 8:45 AM each school day. Students should always come with a pass, their Student ID, Chromebook, and other items related to their problem.
Help is available after 9:30 AM during the school day by appointment only. This is to ensure students are not coming to see me at times when I am unavailable and maximizes their time in the classroom. Teachers may call or email me to make an appointment for a student.

Chromebook Protection
Students at Mauldin Middle School are supplied with Lenovo 100e Gen 2 Chromebook 11 devices.
*New for 2022-2023: The case will not be required for repairs on the device. However, many damages covered by our previous repair company will not be covered by our new one. Damages caused by negligence or forgetfulness on the part of the student are the responsibility of the student.
Due to these revised standards, students are strongly recommended to...
use backpacks or bags built with a padded section for their Chromebook.
purchase and use a protective case on their Chromebook.
not allow other students or siblings access to their Chromebook.
Damaged/Missing MMS Chromebooks
If your Chromebook is damaged, malfunctioning, lost, or stolen, come see me in room G-120 during scheduled Chromebook help times. If your problem can't be resolved right away, you will be provided with a loaner Chromebook while yours is being repaired.
