Intro>Student Accounts
   

All students at HHH will have their own accounts. You will be given a login User Name and password by one of your 6th grade teachers.

Benefits

Your account will provide you a folder on the server. You can keep your work here safely as long as you do not share your password. You can access this account from any networked computer in the building. This means you can work on assignments any time you have access to a computer from any class.

Important

The two most important things to know about using your account are:

  1. Do not, under any circumstances, tell someone your password or allow students to watch you enter your password.
  2. Use the account for school related purposes only.
  3. Read the Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) and follow its requirements.

Hint:

You will be working with several web/word pages open at the same time. An easy way to move from page to page is use the following key combination.
