Spanish Google Classroom Guide for Parents
Dear Quogue Community,
As we increase the use of educational technology both in the classroom as well as from home with the implementation of a 1:1 Macbook/iPad program based on grade level, the potential need for assistance with these devices becomes prevalent.
To ensure that all Staff and Students are able to effectively use these devices as an educational tool, the Quogue School has implemented a “ticket” system to report computer problems directly to a trained computer technician.
If you require assistance with a school-issued computer, click on the link or type it into your browser address bar and fill out the requested information. The technician will review the problem and respond via email with the next steps along with the ticket number.
Click on this link: https://quogueschool.on.spiceworks.com/portal or
Email help@quogueschool.on.spiceworks.com
The link will take you to a page requesting information.
Here is how you should answer:
- “E-mail” – type in your email address
- “Summary” – type in a brief description of your computer problem
- “Description” – type in a detailed description of your computer problem
- “Category” – click on the down arrow and select the category that best fits your needs.
- “Attached File” -- is a button to add additional information. Do not click, it is NOT REQUIRED.
Click on the gray “SUBMIT” bar to submit your computer problem to the technician.
We hope you find this service helpful.
Be well and stay safe.

KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training
Cyber-crime is getting more serious by the month. Hackers are getting smarter about tricking people into clicking on fraudulent links or opening up malicious attachments in emails. It can happen to you personally on your own computer and email as well. Because of this, our district has decided that it is very important that everyone gets comprehensive security awareness training. We need to defend our district against cyber-crime, and security is everyone’s job.
To accomplish this, the Quogue Union Free School District has contracted with KnowBe4 to provide this service. KnowBe4's Enterprise Awareness Training Program provides us with a comprehensive approach that integrates baseline testing using mock attacks, engaging interactive web-based training, and continuous assessment through simulated phishing, vishing and smishing attacks to build a more resilient and secure organization.
You will periodically see emails from do-not-reply@knowbe4.com - these are legitimate emails.
