Students are responsible for taking care of their District-issued Chromebooks. Each student must report any damage and request repair by visiting the campus Tech Depot. Repairs are usually conducted on-site with minimal disruption to the student. If the Chromebook needs to be replaced due to first-time accidental damage or a manufacturing defect, there will be no charge to the student. The student will be responsible for the replacement cost for any intentional or repeated damage. Damage to a Chromebook that is determined by building administration or Technology Department Staff to be intentional is excluded from LTShield Protection Plan coverage. For any deliberate or repeated subsequent accidental damage, the student will be responsible for the cost of a replacement device.

The District provides an “optional” LTShield Chromebook Protection Plan. The District strongly encourages families to purchase the LTShield Protection Plan for each student’s Chromebook each school year. The LTShield Protection Plan is an annual program that must be renewed each school year. LTShield Protection plan is applied per Chromebook and not per family. For example, to be fully covered, a family with two students in grades 6-12 would need to purchase two (2) Chromebook Protection Plans, one for each Chromebook.Although not required, the District strongly encourages families to purchase the LTShield Protection Plan for each student’s Chromebook each school year. For $40 per Chromebook and per incident, a student’s Chromebook is covered for the following issues: Broken glass Charger port failure Theft (with a police report Broken LED/LCD displays Accidental damage Power surge, fire and flood Water damage Loss (with a police report) Vandalism Screen or Touchscreen failure Electrical failures
