TCCS SECONDARY SCHOOL chromebook program
All 7th-12th graders are required to bring a Chromebook to campus each day
ALL chromebooks need to be dropped off to be provisioned onto the school network (even if they have already brought it in) July 30 - August 1. They can drop at the front office Tuesday - Thursday from 9am-1pm. They must leave it with the individual working at the front desk - DO not just drop off
Chromebooks will be provisioned with one account per Chromebook, therefore the Chromebook will be 100% for school use
This will be a full scale provisioning with several benefits:
1. To increase safety net for students by installing the 24-7 filtering system Bark for Schools
2. To protect the school's network
THE GOAL: EACH SECONDARY STUDENT WILL BE EQUIPPED WITH THEIR OWN GOOGLE CHROMEBOOK FOR THE START OF THE SCHOOL YEAR.
Thank you for your support!
NOVELS NEEDED FOR SECONDARY ENGLISH CLASSES
During the first week of school, all students, grades 7th-12th, will need to get their novels for literature in their English classrooms.
We will be able to pass on an educator's discount by purchasing the books through the TCCS English Department.
Below is the novel list, organized by grade and class level.
So, families should check to see if they already have any of the books so that students can be prepared to pick up what they need.
We will charge family accounts for the books purchased.
