LAPTOP COMPUTERS

Please care good care of the laptops. This week Mr. Hummel check all the laptops for missing key caps. He ordered a lot of replacements! AND he replaced all the missing key caps. The laptops are now as good as new...but they won't stay that way if you don't take good care of them. If you see someone messing with the laptops, please remind the student about taking good care of the laptops. If that doesn't work, please tell a teacher. Since Lakeview started buying laptops, there have been some serious problems. Several laptops have been dropped or slipped on a desk causing the monitor screens to break. This is not a cheap repair. Also the IMC staff has often found laptops in the carts that have not been shut down and powered off properly and are still running. The heat from operating laptops can build up in the traveling carts which worries the librarians about the possibility of a fire. All of Lakeview depends on each student using the laptops properly and with special care so that they are ready to use whenever a teacher signs them out. Please help keep our laptops running!
