Mobile Device Expectations

 The HP Stream was purchased primarily for use with the HMH digital curriculum within the ELA department. It is the responsibility of the individual teachers to monitor and reinforce the proper use and care of the devices as outlined in this module.

General Information

  • Each laptop should be assigned to a student per class period. The student will only use the laptop assigned to them.

Daily Maintenance

  • Make sure students log out of laptop after each class period. (This includes Windows, MBC, HMH and Office 365.)
  • Last period of the day should shut down the laptops prior to placing back in cart.
