TECHNOLGOY TIP
The School District released a Windows Update yesterday (10/20/2020). It is very important that you get these installed on your student’s school computer to keep it protected by our district firewall.
For all students that have a district laptop at home please follow the steps below for the next 3 nights.
- Make sure your computer is plugged into power
- Make sure your computer is Connect to Wi-Fi and placed near your Internet router.
- Last, restart the computer at the end of the day and leave it on the login screen overnight.
It is good practice to restart your computer every day or shut it down every night (except for the next 3 nights because of updates). Shutting down your computer and restarting your computer regularly will often solve and prevent many common tech issues.
