Student Technology & Tech Support

Elementary

Kindergarten students have access to a classroom iPads for each student.   Students in grades 1-5 have access to classroom chromebooks for each student.  All of these devices stay in the classroom.

River Bluff

Every sixth grade student has been issued a district Chromebook, case, and charging cord.  Students that are new to River Bluff have been issued a district Chromebook, case, and charging cord.  Students returning to River Bluff in grades 7 and 8 continue to use their district Chromebook they received previously.  Students bring their devices home with them each day.

High School

Ninth grade students  should exchange their district Chromebook they received in middle school for a new district Chromebook once they get to high school.  Students that are new to the High School have been issued a district Chromebook, case, and charging cord.  Student returning to the High School in grades 10-12 continue to use their district Chromebook they received previously.  Students bring their devices home with them each day.

About Securly Filtering

The District uses Securly to filter student Chromebooks while students are at school and at home.  Securly provides visibility for families to their student’s online activity when they are using their district Chromebook at home.  Securly also gives families access to a parent portal where you can set additional internet filters while your student is at home.

What can I expect to see from Securly?

If you are a family returning to SASD from previous years, you will continue to receive weekly emails from Securly with information on the websites your student has accessed the previous week.  

If you are a family new to SASD, you will receive an email from Securly in the next week that will include information on how to access your parent Securly account. After your account is created, you will begin to receive a weekly email with the websites your student has accessed.

How do I sign into the parent portal?

You can access the parent portal in three different ways: the SecurlyHome app (recommended), the weekly activity report email, or the Securly website.  Linked here is an article explaining the different ways you can sign into the parent portal.

How can I get help with Securly?

You have direct access to Securly support by completing their  online request form linked here.  If you are having trouble with a timely response from Securly, please check in at your student's school's LMC.

If the Chromebook is stolen, a police report must be filed immediately. The District will issue a replacement Chromebook to the student upon verification of a police report. If the Chromebook is stolen, and a police report is not filed, students will be responsible for the replacement cost.
