Before we can issue your child a laptop for the 2024-25 school year, we need you to please
1) purchase $27 insurance in case the computer gets damaged
2) give us permission to entrust your child with a laptop.
You need to fill in two very simple online forms.
Before you begin, make sure you know your child's school I.D. number. (The online forms only accept 7-digit IDs. If your child has a 6-digit ID, no problem: just add a 0 to the front of the number.)
