Using the Chromebook
​

Charging the Chromebook
  • Make sure you charge the Chromebook every night.
  • If students lose their charging adapters, they can purchase one in the LHS Media Center for $35.00.
  • Chromebooks will stay charged for 8 hours. We suggest shutting down the Chromebook when not in use to conserve battery life.
  • We suggest leaving the charger at home since it is bulky to carry around.
  • ​All students who purchased the $10 Usage and Protection Plan (UPP) will be issued a Chromebook charger.  Students who do not purchase the UPP will have their Chromebooks charged overnight in the Media Center.

Cleaning the Chromebooks
  • Do not put any cleaning materials directly onto the Chromebook except for a soft, dry, microfiber cloth or static cloth. Do not use window cleaner or any type of liquid on the Chromebook.
  • If you want to clean your Chromebook, supplies are available in the Chrome Clinic.

Additional Information
If students need to charge their Chromebooks, they can bring them to the Media Center to charge them.

When students receive the school issued Chromebook, they will need to check to make sure the Chromebook is working properly.  If not, please alert the Media Center staff immediately if there are any issues.
