Technology Bits and Bytes
- CPS Help Desk: if you are in need of technology troubleshooting issues, or technical or software support, you need to submit a ticket through the CPS Help Desk.
- This is the E-Hallpass Student Training Link for students who are new to IRHS.
Chromebooks for new CPS students: If a student is new to CPS, they will use their Student ID number and this password configuration: Student's first name initial + last name initial + last four of student number (Ex: az4567). Students will be prompted to change their password at the "Your password has expired" screen. Note: This password prompt may not show until the second login attempt. Passwords must be a minimum of 6 characters and cannot be a previously used password.
On Monday, September 5 and Tuesday, September 6, students NEW to CPS should report to the Media Center during blocks 1, 2, and 4 to set their passwords. During Block 3, Mrs. Moseley will assist students during their lunch with passwords.
