The Chromebook operating system, Chrome OS, updates itself automatically. Students do not need to manually update their Chromebooks. Chromebooks use the principle of “defense in depth” to provide multiple layers of protection against viruses and malware, including data encryption and verified boot.

By logging in with their school email account Chromebooks seamlessly integrate with G Suite for Education, a suite of productivity and collaboration tools. This suite includes Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drawings, Classroom, Forms and much more. Students are responsible for the web apps and extensions they install on their Chromebooks. Inappropriate material will result in disciplinary action.
