Repairing and Caring for Your Device
 
Staff and students will be relying on their 1:1 technology devices more now than ever during this unprecedented time.  Grandview Heights Schools (GHS) wants to efficiently address any technology issues which may arise from worn out or damaged devices.
 
Students should contact their teacher regarding a damaged device.  Teacher  are to then submit a Help Desk ticket on their student's behalf using the Incident IQ login in Classlink. 
 
In order to meet everyone’s needs efficiently and effectively, we ask that all staff use the GHS IncidentIQ Tech Support link in Classlink to submit Help Desk tickets for any questions or repair. 
 
 

Getting Your Device Repaired

It is frustrating when a device isn’t working correctly, but don’t worry because we are here to help!  To start the repair process, please email your teacher with the information to the following questions so they can create a technology Help Desk ticket.  The Help Desk system allows the district to track and resolve issues efficiently.

 

  • What is wrong with the device?  Please be as specific as possible.
  • When did this issue occur? Describe if you know how it occurred.
  • What have you tried to do to resolve the issue?
  • What is the asset tag number (from the sticker on the bottom of the device)?
