The Student Help Desk is back to replace and repair devices for the 2022-2023 school year. 

The Student Help Desk is located in the TLC and is available to help out anyone having technology issues. Students working at the help desk can fix or replace Chromebooks, Smartboards and other devices.

Law’s Library Media Specialist Ms. Mundy is the Student Help Desk advisor. 

“If someone were to break their Chromebook it’s my responsibility to diagnose the problem,” senior Matthew McKlosky said. “The main purpose for the students is for them not to worry about their Chromebooks being broken.” 

The Student Help Desk is available for everyone who needs it.

“The main purpose of the student help desk is to give students first hand experience with the IT system,” senior Jacob Swenning said. “It also allows for students to meet people in the IT department and have experience with them.”

The Student Help Desk gives students opportunities to learn about the IT field. This experience can help for future jobs or can be just for fun. 

Students from the help desk suggest taking computer science courses to gain a better understanding at first. Then, if students are interested in working at the help desk, they should speak with Mundy. 

“The Student Help Desk gives the students’ job skill training and gives Law technology needs,” Mundy said. “I assign tasks for them, but it’s very independent.” 

Working at the Student Help Desk can be helpful if students are interested in IT jobs. Students can also learn to work with the IT department for summer and college jobs.
