[Q] Anyone delt with Samsung 5 Series Chromebook Model xe500c21? Need to Reset / Format somehow.

Chromebook is from 2011-2012. I aquired 15 of these units from an auction. All ex units from a local school. I was told all were removed from the Admin System. Yet when I log in i get the login screen with the icon and password box. So its obvious user accounts are still on there and i need to reset the chromebooks somehow. I went to add user i believe it was on the bottom bar and it took me to a google login screen (similar to FRP) asking for username @"school".k12."state".us and password. At the top it says "Enterprise Enrollment Managed by "school".k12."state".us". I have not been able to make it back to the original screen. I tried flipping the dip switch on the side to enable developer mode and it says it was disabled my Admin. Most likely so the kids wouldn't hack it. There is no options for me except a water down Accessibility Menu, Sound, Wifi and Shut Down.

I have tried esc + refresh key on the original login screen and also shift + ctrl + alt + r? i think it was. Neither worked. I have also read that there is a read/write screw that needs to be removed. I am still researching but have yet to find the best working method to bypass and reset these.

I plan on putting Android on a few if possible. On the others I plan on putting Chrome OS back on and Windows 10 on (slimmed down version since SSD on these are only 16GB).

I would appreciate any help anyone can provide.

Thanks,
