This might be the worst intentionally destroyed Chromebook I’ve seen while working at the high school. At least there wasn’t a “Fixable?” Ticket attached this time.

yep nothing of value was lost here

issuing kids a terminal for an advertising/spying company should be illegal

wish my school gave me a Chromebook during COVID "you have a phone you can use that"

If you don’t have a Time Machine their parents credit card will work as an alternative

Yeah and if you don’t have homemade Time Machine, store bought is fine

Is the student a 10 year old boy and who gave him a screwdriver remember what he did to the toaster and his stereo.

Nope, junior in high school. 🤦‍♂️

It’s “deconstructed” - that’s so in these days.

I mean it isn’t so bad if you want to think of it as art. I went to a Yoko Ono exhibit a few weeks back.

You gave it to them like this. So clearly not their fault
