To the Bristol Warren Regional School District Community,
I am pleased to introduce Dr. Jonathan Brice as our interim superintendent. Dr. Brice is a preK-12 leader with 26+ years of experience as a teacher, school administrator and executive in five large school districts in Maryland, Florida, and Delaware. He served as Deputy Assistant Secretary at the U.S. Department of Education and was a founding director of a non-profit organization. His areas of responsibilities have included: alternative education, public information, research and assessment, special education, student services, supporting and evaluating school principals, and technology. Additionally, Dr. Brice has been an education consultant for organizations and school districts such as the Southern Poverty Law Center, and various school districts, and in February 2018 the New Rochelle Board of Education selected Dr. Brice as Chair of the Task-Force on Reducing Violence in the Lives of Children and Youth in New Rochelle, New York.Dr. Brice is excited to meet the BWRSD community and has shared his initial thoughts about his appointment. “I am humbled by the opportunity to serve the students, staff, and community of the Bristol Warren Regional School District. My initial focus will be on listening and learning about BWRSD, and collaborating and identifying measurable outcomes for the 2019-2020 school year. Thank you to the school committee for your confidence and I look forward to meeting with the Bristol Warren Regional School Community on July 22, 2019.”
We invite you to join us and our new interim superintendent for a Meet n’ Greet the evening of July 22nd, from 6 p.m.-7 p.m., prior to the regularly scheduled school committee meeting. Refreshments will be provided. All are welcome!
Sincerely,
Erin Schofield,
Chairperson

Complete the following to safely store your district Chromebook over the Summer:
With a new season upon us, Dell wants to share the Google recommended steps to prepare your Chromebook inventory for storage over long periods. Following these steps will help to avoid charging or battery related issues when the Chromebooks are put back into service.
Best practice prior to long term storage:
- Update to the latest version of the Chrome OS and charge your Chromebook so that the battery is at least 80% full.
- This ensures that even when the battery discharges while unplugged over the summer, it won’t fully run out of power.
- Connect the device to a charger and turn it on.
- Hold Refresh and Power at the same time.
- While holding these keys, remove the power cable from device and then release the keys. The device should shut down and remain off.
- Attempt to power the unit on using the power button. If the unit does not power on, you have completed the steps and can safely store the system. If the unit powers on, you should repeat steps 2 through 4.
Upon redeploying:
- Connect the Chromebook to a charger and a power source, which will get them out of the battery disconnect state. Power up your device.
- Connect your Chromebook to WiFi and update them to the latest Chrome OS release.
- This can take time, as multiple Chrome OS versions may have been released since the last time the device was updated.
Google provides additional communication related to the storing process which can be found here: https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/9139543.
Also, additional information can be found under Dell knowledge base article, SLN308522, via the following link: https://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/19/sln308522
Dell provides a standard one-year warranty on batteries. Failure to follow the steps provided above could cause your batteries to reach a critically low charge, when the device is stored for long periods of time and could result in permanent failure of the battery.
