6th Grade Chromebooks

General Use Guidelines

❖ Each student will be issued a chromebook

➢ Every student is responsible for his/her chromebook ➢ Even if you let someone else use your chromebook, you are responsible for it.

❖ ABSOLUTELY NO food or drink should be near your chromebook.

➢ Be sure not to use near water (restrooms, water fountains)

❖ Be careful with your chromebook

➢ Remove or insert cords, cables, and removable storage devices very carefully

❖ NEVER yank on cords to unplug the charger from the computer or outlet ❖ When the power cord may be a tripping hazard, do not use the chromebooks while they are plugged in.

General Use Guidelines

❖ You should never write, draw, or apply stickers or tape to your chromebook ❖ Only static cling decals that peel off easily are permitted ❖ Make sure to clean your hands before using your chromebook ❖ You should only use your chromebook on a flat surface ❖ Don’t store your chromebook in extreme temperatures (preferably within 50-80 degrees fahrenheit) ❖ NEVER place heavy objects on top of the chromebook, the screen could crack

Identification Tags

❖ All chromebooks will be labeled with an identification tag with your name on it. ❖ DO NOT mess around with your identification tag ❖ There will be a barcode on the tag to let the school know that you returned your chromebook at the end of the year

Carrying chromebooks

❖ ALWAYS transport chromebooks with two hands ❖ NEVER lift a chromebook by its screen ❖ ALWAYS close a chromebook before you carry it ❖ ALWAYS remove flash drives before putting the chromebooks in your bag or storing them

Chromebook Cases

❖ Each of you will have a protective case for your chromebook ❖ Cases should be be kept on the chromebooks at all times ❖ DO NOT put any stickers on your chromebook

Screen Care

❖ The Chromebook can be damaged if subjected to heavy objects, rough treatment, some cleaning solvents, and other liquids. The screens are particularly sensitive to damage from excessive pressure ❖ DO NOT put pressure on the top of a Chromebook when it is closed ❖ DO NOT store a Chromebook with the screen open ❖ Make sure there is nothing on the keyboard before closing the lid (pens, pencils, erasers, etc.) Even a very small item can shatter the screen. ❖ Only clean the screen with a soft, dry microfiber cloth or antistatic.

❖ DO NOT try to repair your chromebook by yourself ❖ If you have any problems, notify your teacher immediately ❖ Even broken keys must be reported to the technology department so that they can be replaced and fixed ❖ If you try to repair the chromebook by yourself, it could become even worse
