May 15th All 8th Grade and Non-returning Students Return Chromebooks

On May 15th, all 8th graders and other non-returning students will bring their charged Chromebook to the library. The Chromebook will need to be open and on. Each Chromebook will be evaluated, and if necessary, fees will be assigned. Chargers need to be wrapped neatly and, if possible, have the name removed. 

๐Ÿงผ The Chromebook Cleaning Checklist

Before Friday, May 15th make sure to check for these common culprits:

  • Personal Stickers: Carefully peel them back. If they are stubborn, a plastic card (like a library card) can help scrape them up without scratching the plastic.
  • Sticky Residue: This is the hardest part. A tiny bit of isopropyl alcohol (70% or higher) on a microfiber cloth usually does the trick. Avoid using harsh kitchen degreasers.
  • Artistic "Additions": Use a damp cloth or hand sanitizer to remove pencil, pen, or permanent marker marks.
  • Gum Wrappers: If there is gum wrapper foil anywhere on the Chromebook, please remove it.
  • The Charger: Don't forget to wipe down the cord! These often get dusty or sticky after a year of use. Please remove your name, if applicable.

โš ๏ธ What to Leave Alone

Do NOT remove the CFB Barcode on the bottom of the Chromebook.
