Chromebook Tip of the Week!
Keep it charged! Please do not allow the battery to completely die. It is common for a Chromebook not to start again if the battery is allowed to completely drain. If your battery won’t turn on after it has completely died, try charging it for a full 24 hours.
Visit the Wilson Student Help Corner Website where you can find video tutorials answering your frequently asked questions about apps used in your classrooms. We also have tutorials in Armenian and Spanish.

Digital Citizenship Tip of the Week!
Create strong passwords. A powerful password does wonders to protect accounts. A password should be hard to guess, be a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols, and never include private identity information such as birthdays or addresses. Lastly, you should never share your passwords with friends.
