Encourage Secure Passwords!
- Encourage students to reflect on their password they use to activate their tablets; making sure their device is secure and unique to them and unknown to others (besides their parents). We want them to be protected and prevent people from accessing their accounts! Be Aware that the district technology department has the ability to check who is logging in as other people. Be safe. Be responsible.
