When students log in to a Chromebook for the first time, it may feel a bit slow—this is completely normal. During that first login, the Chromebook is creating the student’s local profile on the device, which can take a little time to complete, especially if multiple students are logging in at once.
To help things go more smoothly, we recommend staggering logins—have just a few students sign in at a time. This helps reduce strain on both the device and the network, leading to a better experience for everyone.
Think of it like an “internet traffic jam”: when too many students across campus try to log in all at once, things can slow down. But once a student’s profile has been created, future logins will be much faster and more reliable for the rest of the school year.
