Class of 2026: Senior Tablet Return & Purchase Guide
Seniors,
Congratulations on reaching the finish line, Seniors! As we wrap up our final weeks at SMCHS, it is time to handle the transition of your school-owned tablet device. Please read the following details carefully to ensure a smooth checkout and to make sure you receive your diploma on time.
ALL SENIORS ARE REQUIRED TO RETURN THEIR DEVICE.
Our Lenovo devices each have embedded software on a chip on the motherboard for tracking and securing the devices. Any student who does not turn in the device by May 21stwill have a lockout command sent, and the device will remain locked until returned to SMCHS. IMPORTANT: Please go to the Tech Center and advise them if you are going to be taking a late final or marking up work and need to make arrangements to hold onto the device for a few days.
As we approach AP/IB testing, the Information Technology Department needs your support to ensure all student devices are ready.
The Bluebook software comes with a warning: “Avoid Test Day Delays, Bluebook auto-updates when students open it, too many simultaneous updates by students could overwhelm your network and delay testing. Ask students to open Bluebook on their own before test day or any group readiness activities. They don’t need to sign in. “
