Preston School District #201
1 to 1 Device Responsible Use and Non-Refundable Damage Deposit (Voluntary)
The Preston School District believes that the district’s technology focus should support student achievement through innovative, mobile, flexible, and responsive devices that prepare tech aware and tech literate students for their future. The district provides students with a general use device to support learning opportunities at school and at home when necessary.
AGREEMENT
As a student of the Preston School District and the parent/guardian of such a student, we assume responsibility for loss, damage, or theft of assigned technology. Whether used at school or off school premises, we recognize that the device is school property and will not intentionally maltreat the equipment or act with significant negligence.
“I accept responsibility for the appropriate use of the District equipment entrusted to me and promise to return the equipment when requested.”
“I acknowledge that abuse, misuse, or malicious behavior may result in a discussion related to repair or replacement of damaged equipment entrusted to me and payment to the district or school for such repair or replacement.”
“I understand the Preston School District offers a Voluntary Non-Refundable Damage Deposit. The cost of the Preston School District Non-Refundable Damage Deposit is $15 for 1 year and can be renewed each year. This $20 deposit covers accidental damage, loss, or theft 1 time per year. Should subsequent accidental damage occur, school administration may charge a $15 renewal fee. Negligence or purposeful damage, and incidental damage to someone else’s device are NOT covered by this damage deposit. When necessary, depending on availability, a second device can be checked out while repairs are being completed.”
Loss or Damaged charging cords are NOT covered by the damage deposit.
We encourage Parents and students to carefully read the school device user policy online.
