Can my school see what I'm using the internet for if I'm using a VPN (Betternet) on a school laptop?
Not impossible. If the computer you use is managed and maintained by your schools IT department it might have security / management software installed that will tell the admins regardless the VPN which sites you visit. Looking at the network traffic also might show that you use VPN software.As a rule of the thumb, if you use another network to VPN over for privacy reasons you should only do so from your _own_ laptop that you control yourself.Existing risk with many VPN solutions is the so called ‘DNS leaking’, this means that the real network traffic very well might be encrypted but that the names of websites you type, e.g. http://www.quora.com are visible in the log files of the local DNS server / forwarder if the admin would be interested seeing them. Most good (read paying) VPN implementations that are correctly installed will cover this part and also forward DNS lookups over the VPN tunnel but a lot can go wrong with crappy software and administrative blockages on a system centrally managed by an admin.Trust me, good system admins in schools know that students love to circumvent filters, many have passed before you and many will follow, some might not be attending classes anymore because they were kicked out, others might have just received a warning and some fish would have swam trough the mazes of the net, but time and chance is running against you.
If I am using a computer I received from my school on my home WiFi network, will they see my browsing history if I am using Incognito Mode?
So many naive & uninformed & outdated answers to this question.Laptops provided to students ‘for free’ in the USA typically come installed with monitoring software, which could feasibly be logging browsing history. It will be doing this logging regardless of which wifi network you connect to (school’s, yours at home, anywhere).There’ve even been incidents of school district staff abusing this monitoring software to perv on teens via the webcam.So:(a) only use the laptop for school work(b) get one of those ‘sliding window’ laptop webcam covers(c) as another answer suggests, you can install a ‘linux live’ onto a USB memory stick once, and then boot the laptop from that whenever you want, do personal stuff on that, then shut down & boot back into the laptop’s usual OS for school work. Not exactly convenient for quickly switching between the two, but it’s the only way I’d be using a school-supplied laptop for “personal stuff”.

Is "thank you for letting me know" correct? Why or why not?
Since you ask not only if the sentence is correct, but why, I will tell you why.It is a complete sentence consisting of the simple sentence "[I] thank you," and a prepositional phrase that takes a gerund phrase as its object.So, here are the parts of the sentence:subject: Iverb: thankdirect object: youpreposition: forobject of the preposition: letting (a gerund, or noun derived from a verb)direct object of the gerund: meindirect object of the gerund: know ("know" is usually a verb, but it is functioning as a noun in this sentence, which is fine, because it is standard usage. The poster who said it is an infinitive without the "to" is actually right; it is an infinitive, but it has never been standard usage to use the "to" in a situation like this. Verbals have always stood alone in this type of usage).I would diagram it, but I don't know how to reproduce a diagram in the answer space.Anyway, all the pieces of the sentence fit together. If they didn't, or if something were missing, then the sentence is not grammatical. But since everything is there and in the right place, it is grammatical.
