Rising 6th Grade Parents: Richland Two Roadshow

It is that time of year where students are signing up for classes for the next school year. Each year, elementary schools allow the middle school arts programs to come into their schools and present the Richland Two Roadshow. This event allows 5th grade students to learn more about the band, orchestra, and chorus as well as dance, theatre, and visual arts. This is particularly important to band, orchestra, and chorus because students need to begin these Pathways to Purpose when they begin 6th grade. 

This year, the Richland Two Roadshow is virtual. We believe this new format will attract more students and their parents.  The entire Roadshow can be viewed at Richland Two Roadshow.  After viewing, students and/or parents need to complete the Richland Two Middle School Sign Up Form by Monday, May 3.

Chromebooks

 District issued Chromebooks should be powered off for updates and cleaned often. Chromebooks can be cleaned in the following way:

• Shut down the Chromebook:
• Power off the device by clicking on Shut Down on the bottom left. The screen will go black once it has shut down.
• Approved cleaners for plastic surfaces:
• Lightly spray a paper towel or rag with Lysol antibacterial spray and wipe the plastic surfaces only (keyboard, lid and back).
• Antibacterial wipes can be used if all excess liquid has been squeezed out before wiping the plastic surfaces.
• Screen Care:
• Screens are fragile and can be easily damaged, do not put pressure on the screen-lightly rub the surface.
• Use only a screen wipe to clean the screens.
• Never spray anything directly on the device or use a saturated rag or towel.

Reminders:

• The Chromebooks are on loan for the school year and are not a student's personal device.
• Students should not be adding decorations to their devices. No stickers, drawing, markers, etc. should be on the device. 
• Chromebooks should be shut down often so that they can update. Signing out and/or closing the lid does not update the device.
• Do not add apps or extensions without being asked by your teacher.
