I lost my Chromebook, what do I need to do? Report the lost Chromebook by entering a ticket at techspot.tisd.org and include as many details as possible. Try retracing your steps. Ask your teachers or classmates if they have seen your Chromebook. Check with the principals office and front office.
There are some websites that are blocked even at home, can I get these unblocked? TISD has a web filter on the Chromebooks both on and off campus. Some sites will be blocked no matter what. If you have a site that you need to access for one of your classes, ask the teacher of that class to request access to the Technology Department. If you are being blocked from a regular school site, power off your device and wait a few minutes before powering back on. Also, sometimes websites may be down for updates and maintenance.
