Chromebook Trouble
- Since this problem is often caused by the battery going into "storage mode" by being drained completely, make sure the Chromebook is plugged in when you do these steps.
- With the Chromebook off, press and hold ecs + refresh arrow + power for 2 or 3 seconds
- Once you see the white screen with the pictures of a thumbdrive and sd card asking for recovery media, power down the Chromebook by pressing just the power button.
- Wait 30 seconds and press power to turn the Chromebook back on. It may take up to a minute to come back on.
- Log into your Chromebook as you normally would.
- If this doesn't fix the issue, only then should you contact the school for help, repair or replacement.

Attached is the Griswold Public School Districts 1:1 policy for your review.
This must be signed (Parent Form) and returned the first day your student attends and they will receive their device. If your child borrowed a device when school closed in the spring and has not returned it, then no device will be given.
If your child is opting out and strictly doing distance learning, then you will be receiving a phone call to set up a time to pick up a device from our technology staff for your convenience.
Griswold Public Schools will be utilizing Google Classroom along with other platforms to provide classroom instruction.
Students will be provided technology devices to allow for safe use and ease of access as needed. All Chromebooks use GoGuardian software to monitor and filter the students' activity on the device. Our goal is to provide a safe and user friendly experience.
