Friendly Reminders
Students, please make sure you bring your Chromebooks or personal computing devices to school everyday, fully charged and ready to be used. It is very important to do this as you may be using these devices for various courses at our school. In addition, please start building the habit of charging your Chromebooks or personal devices every night to ensure it is ready the day after. It is always greatly appreciated that a student comes prepared.
Parents/Guardians and families, please make sure your child brings their Chromebooks or personal computing devices to school everyday, fully charged and ready to be used. It is very important to do this as you may be using these devices for various courses at our school. Please remind your child every night to charge their devices and pack it in their backpacks for the morning. We very much appreciate your help in this and to help them build these positive habits as they go about this new school year.
If your student has checked out a chromebook from the school, buying insurance is highly recommended. Families have 30 days from the beginning of school to purchase insurance. The insurance is $30 for the 2023-24 school year and covers any physical damage that may be done to the device that causes it to no longer function properly. Chromebook insurance does not cover a lost device. You can purchase insurance through www.schoolpay.com
If your student is in need of a hotspot to access the internet at home, please reach out to our FACES representative, Mr. Cruz cruz_p@auhsd.us
