Device Care. Just like any school property issued to a student for individual use, students will be held responsible for maintaining their individual devices and keeping them in good working order. Students are responsible for any and all damage. A Device Protection Plan (DPP) is available through the District. • Devices that malfunction or are damaged must be reported immediately. All device repairs must be handled through the District. Students are responsible for the actual cost of damages – not to exceed the cost of replacement. • Device batteries must be charged and ready for school each day. • Device cases furnished by the school District must be returned with only normal wear and no alterations to avoid paying a case replacement fee. • Devices that are stolen must be reported immediately to a building administrator.
Device Care. Each student is responsible for the overall care of their device and charging cord. Take devices that are damaged or don’t work properly to the assigned campus as soon as possible to be evaluated for repairs. Please do not attempt to fix it on your own or take it to an outside vendor for any type of repairs or maintenance. Device Storage When not in use, store the device in a safe place where the student can monitor the device at all times. Devices should never be left in a car, an area exposed to excessive heat or cold, or unsupervised. Lost, Stolen, or Damaged Devices BISD understands that accidents may happen with devices. If a student damages a device due to lack of proper care or intentional misuse, the student/family will be responsible for the repair or replacement cost. Description Price Misc. Repairs $25-$200 Chromebook Replacement $250 iPad Replacement $300 If a device is stolen, the student/family must provide a copy of a police report to the school Principal or Technology Department within 72 hours of discovering the theft. If the proper documentation is not submitted, the student/family will be held responsible for the stolen device. Most devices are equipped with trackable software (GPS locator) that can be enabled if a device is lost or reported as stolen. The software is only activated when: • Requested by school administrator, in most cases, because the device has been lost on campus, or • The device is reported as lost or stolen by student or parent. If the device is lost or damaged beyond repair, the district will charge the student based on the fee schedule above. • A letter may be sent to the parent/guardian if deemed necessary. Repeated accidental damage to a device will result in fees for the cost of repairs and parts. • Repair to an intentionally damaged device will be charged at the actual cost of repair including parts and labor. • Devices intentionally damaged beyond repair will be treated as a lost device. • Note: The school administrator will determine if the device has been intentionally damaged. • Replacement cost will be charged for a lost or stolen device not reported to the campus and police department within 72 hours. • A fee of $25 will be charged for lost, stolen, or damaged AC adapters. Students must have and use a BISD issued AC adapter. • Parents should notify law enforcement when an issued device is lost or stolen outside of school. A copy of an official report should be provided to the school administration within ...
