Insurance coverage is obtained through payment of a $25 insurance premium. As with other insurance models, in the event the device needs to be repaired or replaced due to accidental damage, non/out-of warranty issues and/or theft, an approved claim carries with it an additional assessment (a deductible) to be paid by the student's family. If the claim is denied, the family is held financially responsible for the full cost of the repair/replacement needed.
Students/Parents accept responsibility for any/all the following (Including students/parents eligible for free/reduced lunch):
-
In the event of device damage, out-of-warranty repair or a police-recognized theft, a deductible of $30 would be paid
-

Families are also held responsible for lost or damaged device accessories (i.e. power adapter, protective shell, case).
