Chromebooks

The East Stroudsburg Area School District introduces its Chromebook Initiative for grades 6-8. Students will be issued Chromebooks to use at school, encouraging critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, and speed. With no software installations required, the Chromebooks have a fast boot-up time of about 8 seconds. All work is saved in the cloud, making it easily accessible from anywhere. A Chromebook Cart Management Procedure is in place with guidelines on Chromebook usage and care. Students will receive a bag to carry their Chromebook, ensuring proper handling during transitions. Proper internet etiquette, including no bullying, name-calling, or negative comments online, is emphasized. Students will use their school email address and password to log on to the Chromebooks. Background customization options are available for personalization. The initiative aims to enhance learning through technology integration and efficient digital workflows.
