New Windows 11 PC Images

Quick Links to some software I want to install
Win 11 install from the latest version the school has:

Windows 11 Users
Plan to have Following Users
Teacher ← Admin ← Password = <standred SVCYE teacher password>
AM_Student ← Password = learnAM
PM_Student ← Password = PMlearn
Thomas, think about what you migh want to do for a class guest or shadow student:
Shadow_Student ← Password = Shadow
(want to be able to clear user space back to a default) <-- can you create a script to reset this user to a pre-set user files
Workshop_Student ← Same access as AM/PM Students ← Password = learnWokshop
(want to be able to clear user space back to a default) <-- can you create a script to reset this user to a pre-set user files
I might have one of the class laptops as a sub laptop depending on my class size, but we could add a sub user account later
Substitute ← Same access as AM/PM Students ← Password = Sub760
