Student Laptops

Laptops will be distributed to students through their first period teacher. Students without a first period will get their laptops directly from the technology room.

ALL FAMILIES ARE ENCOURAGED TO PURCHASE LAPTOP INSURANCE:

Insurance must be purchased within 30 days of receipt of the device.

  1. Parents/guardians have the option to purchase low-cost student device insurance through the PWCS-approved third-party vendor, Securranty.
  2. Parents/guardians will sign up on their own with the following information:
    1. School name
    2. Student last name, first name
    3. Student ID number
    4. Debit/credit card information
  3. If purchased, the insurance covers unlimited repairs or replacements for everything from broken screens, lost chargers, and accidental damage, with a zero deductible for one year on a school-issued HP device. The insurance cost is $29.95, which may be significantly less than repair or replacement costs without insurance.

Below is information for vaccine clinics:

  • The Woodbridge Health Department has increased the staff (our nurses) to serve more walk-in students on August 22 & 24 from 8am - 4pm on a first come first served basis.
  • PWCS have connected with Safeway, and they are accepting appointments, based on the following information provided to us:
    • Walk-in anytime
      • No appointment is needed. It is recommended that parents call ahead to make sure they have enough specific childhood vaccines in stock. (All stores should have HPV, Tdap, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis A in stock)
