Using Your Chromebook

At School: The Chromebook is intended for use at school each and every day. In addition to

teacher expectations for Chromebook use, school messages, announcements, calendars,

academic handbooks, student handbooks and schedules may be accessible using the

Chromebook. Students must be responsible for bringing their Chromebook to all classes, unless

specifically advised not to do so by their teacher.

At Home: All Students are required to take their Chromebook home each night throughout the

school year for charging. Chromebooks must be brought to school each day in a fully charged

condition. Students need to charge their Chromebooks each evening. If students leave their

Chromebook at home they will be subject to the school code of conduct-demerit procedure.

Repeat violations of this policy will result in referral to administration and possible disciplinary

action.

It is recommended that students not carry the AC Adapter power cord (charger) to school. If

fully charged at home, the battery will last throughout the day. Additional chargers are

available in each class as needed for emergency circumstances within school. The Chromebooks

will use a proxy based content filter when outside of the H.W. Mountz network. The content

filter uses relaxed filtering policies to protect against inappropriate material while enabling

students to use search engines, safe social media and YouTube safely.

Sound: Sound must be muted at all times unless permission is obtained from the teacher for

instructional purposes.

Printing- At School: Part of the beauty of chromebooks is the ability to create a paperless

environment in the classroom For this reason we will primarily not be printing from the

Chromebooks at school. Instead students will submit assignments to teachers digitally through

Google Apps. Directions on how to submit work will be provided on an individual basis by the

teacher.

Printing - At Home: The Chromebook does not support a physical printer connection.

Instead, users may print to their home printers using the Google Cloud Print service. A wireless

home network is required for this. While this is not supported by the district, if families feel the

need they may look into it at http://google.com/cloudprint.

Managing Your Files and Saving Your Work:

Students may save documents to their Google Drive, or they may save to an external memory

device such as an SD card or USB flash drive. Saving to Google Drive will make the file

accessible from any computer with internet access. Students using Google Drive to work on
