School-Issued Laptops Must Get Updates This Weekend: HCPS

From Harford County Public Schools: This is an important request of families with students in 4th through 12th grade.

If your student brought their HCPS-issued Chromebook or laptop home with them this weekend, please have them plug in the device to an electrical outlet, and power on the device. Please have your student sign in, and leave the device powered on for approximately one hour. This will prompt the device to receive required updates.

Allowing devices to update at home this weekend will save students and staff time completing the updates on their devices at school next week.

If your student’s device was left in the school, they will receive the updates when they log on at school and no further action is needed on your part.

If you brought your HCPS device home, please plug in, power on, sign in, and leave powered on for approx. 1 hr. This will prompt the device to receive required updates. "Why" noted in http://hcps.org
