Chromebook fixes prior to contacting tech department:
Between the increased use of the devices for many of you and all the updates that Google is pushing right now, the Chromebooks may be freezing and going "black screen". Many times this is just the devices demanding a restart for an update (remember closing the screen is not a shut-down but a sleep).
Before you panic try this:
Push and Hold the power button for 30 seconds while it is plugged in
IF that does not work
Unplug and Push and Hold the power button for 30 seconds
*Parents or students that have a tech question or need to report an issue with their chromebook can also send email to helpdesk@usd231.com or leave a voicemail at 856.2020
