Responsible Use and Care of Devices

Please handle the device with care and ensure that your student:

• Brings the device to school every day, fully charged.
• Stores and charges the device in a secure, protected location.
• Uses the case provided and exercises care when the device is transported.
• Reports any problems or damage to a teacher or library media center staff immediately.

Device Protection Plan
In an effort to protect families from unknown expenses that may occur from theft or accidental damage while the device is in the care of your student, the district is offering a device protection plan. The charge for the device protection plan is $25.00 per school year per student, or $5 per school year per student for families who qualify for educational benefits. If you have questions about the device protection plan, please contact a school administrator.

• The protection plan covers first accidental damage. Deductibles apply to subsequent claims.
• The charger and case are not covered by the plan.
• If your device is stolen, provide evidence that a police report was filed.
• Damage caused by misuse is not covered by the plan.

Digital devices and accessories are the property of Robbinsdale Area Schools and must be returned to Robbinsdale Area Schools at the end of each school year or upon withdrawal from school. Fines will be assessed for negligent damage or a lost device, charger or case. Devices and accessories not returned on the date of the student withdrawal from school will be reported as stolen to the local police department.
