One2One Laptop Program
All student computers are leased and not owned by American Academy. Computers are returned to the leasing company upon the contract termination date. Upon return, the computer must be in good, working condition with only normal signs of wear and tear. If the computer requires any repairs due to abuse or neglect or failure to report to the IT Department while in the student possession, the family will be responsible for the repair/replacement cost as outlined in the Fines and Fees Agreement below.

Traveling Internationally with the AA Issued Laptop
Students will not be allowed to travel internationally with the AA school issued laptop. The AA school laptop and many of the sites accessed by students have IP restrictions that may not be accessible when connecting to the internet out of the country. Families should communicate their international travel plans with their campus Dean. The AA school laptop and charger must be turned into the Dean BEFORE leaving the country. The laptop and charger will be returned to the student upon returning to school.
Parent Password for Student One2One Chromebook
T
he American Academy IT Department does not allow students to access Settings on their One2One Chromebook. Students will not be able to install a home printer because of this reduced access. Students have access to the school printers and all campuses even have a dedicated printer just for students. Please encourage your students to complete all of their printing needs at school. An alternative option is to login to their Google school account on a personal device at home and print to your home printer. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please email the IT Department.
Internet Web Filtering
ALL American Academy issued Chromebooks are filtered and monitored while at school as well as when away from the school network. The American Academy internet filter will be in use on any wifi network the laptop connects to.
Lenovo Power Adapters
If you wish to purchase a second power adapter for your student's One2One Chromebook, the cost is $30. Please email your respective campus IT department or have the student bring the payment to the IT Office and we will provide you with a charger.
If you need to replace the power adapter (lost, damaged) that came with the school laptop, please ask your student to visit the IT Office for a replacement. A fee will be charged - please send in cash or check payable to American Academy.
All power cords purchased MUST be the genuine Lenovo brand. Please do not substitute with "generic" brands since this can cause permanent damage to the laptop.
