Each Chromebook is labeled and assigned to an individual student and only that person can login to the Chromebook.  Do not let friends or family borrow the Chromebook.

Students may not personalize or embellish the Chromebook in a permanent way (eg: normal stickers, permanent markers, engraving, etc).  Students may purchase a Hard Shell Case for the Chromebook if they choose. Cases are not provided or sold by the District.  Students are not required to purchase a Hard Shell case.

Students should never share login credentials/passwords.  Login credentials can be used to access more than just the Chromebook, sharing login credentials exposes the student to privacy concerns.

Immediately seek assistance from a building technology contact to request a password change.  Explain why the password change is needed.

If you are in a class that leaves for lunch or another activity, check with the teacher to make sure the classroom will be secure. When available, secure the Chromebook in a locker. Never share your locker combinations with friends.

Immediately contact a staff member in the Repair Shop located in the Media Center.  In the event the Chromebook is reported STOLEN, Fremont Public Schools will require the student/parent to file a police report and submit a copy to the District.  The student will be required to also complete an appropriate LOST or STOLEN form.  Form will be provided from the Repair Shop in the Media Center.
