Technology Resources for Families

As we transition to Distance Learning, we are working with various school sites to get educational devices and connectivity options into the hands of students and families to ensure teaching and learning can continue anytime, anywhere, to support teaching and learning to the greatest extent possible. While schools are temporarily closed, the San Ysidro School District (SYSD) will make available Chromebook laptop devices to students in grades 5-8 who may not otherwise have access to a computer at home. All devices will be on loan to families and are to be returned at the end of the academic year.

Laptop Care and Use at Home

We always recommend that students:

• Charge the laptop fully each night - it may also be used while plugged in

• Use the laptop in a common area of the house - avoid using outside

• Use the laptop on a desk or table - avoid using or leaving it on floors

• Keep the laptop away from food, liquid, and pets

Note: Many issues with Chromebooks can be resolved by restarting the device.
