It is available on Chromebooks, however you need to jump through a lot of hoops to get it working (at least from what I've encountered). I am not in high school, but this would have been a great tool to have with me. If only for taking notes. My handwriting is awful, haha. The best part is that Google Docs usually auto-save themselves after a few key strokes, so if anything happens to the system, there will likely be little or no loss of work. Printing may be difficult if the teachers require hard copies of papers and such, but I have not played around with Googles' print features, so thats really just a blind guess. It is a great alternative to Windows, and much less exepensive to replace if it is lost, stolen, or broken.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This should do fine for a student. According to Google's link here: https://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/chrome-os-systems-supporting-android-apps This model should support Google Play at the end of 2016/early 2017.
