CCPS mobile learning devices and accessories are provided for educational purposes only and are intended to support the learning objectives of CCPS. However, due to the possibility of misuse, a student loaned mobile learning device or access to any CCPS network is a student's privilege and not a right.

The equipment is the property of CCPS and is on loan to the student for educational purposesonly, subject to the conditions herein.

Grades K-2	iPad plus charger	Apple	$350.00
Grades 3-12	Laptop plus charger	HP	$565.00

2. Term of Agreement and Return of Equipment. CCPS is loaning the Equipment to the Student for the current School Year.

The Student must return the Equipment upon the request of CCPS at the end of the school year or if the Student withdraws from CCPS.

3.  Inspection by CCPS. CCPS reserves the right to monitor the student’s use of the equipment, to periodically inspect the equipment, and anything stored on it without prior notice. The same monitoring policy applies to any CCPS loaner device given to a student while their assigned device is out for repair.

4.  Use of and Care for the Equipment. 

   •The equipment is to be used for educational purposes only, and the student’s use of the equipment must comply with all applicable School Board Policies and regulations, including the Acceptable Computer System Use Policy IIBEA/GAB, the Administrative Procedures Governing Computer System Use Policy IIBEAA/GABA, and the Internet Safety Program Policy IIBEAB/GABB. The failure of any user to follow the terms of these division policies may result in loss of computer system privileges, disciplinary action, and/or appropriate legal action. Users of the system agree to indemnify the School Board for any losses, costs, or damages relating to or arising out of any violation of these policies. Damaged student devices are subject to fees based on the Student Fees, Fines, and Tuition Payment Policy (JN).

   •The student is responsible for the reasonable care of the equipment and should place it in a secure location (locked up when possible) when not in use. The student should take care not to drop it, get it wet, must not leave it outdoors or in a car in extreme weather conditions, or use it near food or drink. The student may clean the equipment with a soft, dry cloth only but may not remove any protective case to clean it.

   •The student will transport the equipment as needed and bring it to school each day, fully charged. The student and Parent/Guardian understand if the student comes to school without the equipment, the student may not be able to participate in classroom activities, and their grade may be affected.

   •The equipment is for the student’s exclusive use. The student may not lend the equipment to anyone, including friends or siblings. The student will not alter, disfigure, or deface the equipment or cover up any numbering, lettering, or insignia displayed on the equipment.

5. Security Measures. CCPS has installed security measures on the equipment that will function outside CCPS network filters. These tools may be used to track CCPS’ inventory and are intended to filter or block access to sites with child pornography, obscenity, and material deemed to be harmful to juveniles as defined in the Code of Virginia §18.2-390. While CCPS uses these technology protection measures to limit access to material considered harmful or inappropriate to students, it may not be possible for the school division to prevent such access absolutely, and the Parent/Guardian should supervise the student’s use of the equipment while at home.

 

6. Responsibility for Loss or Damage and Duty to Report. The student and/or Parent/Guardian are responsible for the repair or replacement costs, whichever is less, for any damage to or loss of the equipment. Damage includes, but is not limited to, defacing of the equipment, broken or damaged components, and conditions beyond normal wear associated with the use of the equipment. While accidents can occur, the school administration will evaluate each incident to determine whether the damage resulted from negligence. A first-time accidental damage incident will
   incur a $25 charge. Any subsequent damage may result in additional charges up to the full replacement cost of the device. The student and the Parent/Guardian are not to attempt to repair the equipment. CCPS will manage all equipment repairs. If the equipment is lost or stolen, the student and/or Parent/Guardian must file a police report within 48 hours The student and/or Parent/Guardian must immediately report to School Personnel any damage to or the loss or malfunctioning of the equipment.

7. Data usage. CCPS is not responsible for any data or overage costs associated with home internet use.

Information on SMS text messaging and Short Codes: SMS stands for Short Message Service and is commonly called a "text message." Most cell phones support this type of text messaging. Our notification provider, SchoolMessenger, uses a true SMS protocol developed by the telecommunications industry specifically for mass text messaging, referred to as “short code” texting. This method is fast, secure, and highly reliable because it is strictly regulated by the wireless carriers and only allows access to approved providers. If you’ve ever sent a text vote to a number like 46999 for a TV show, you have used short code texting. *Terms and Conditions – Message frequency varies. Standard message and data rates may apply. Reply HELP for help. Text STOP to cancel. Mobile carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. See schoolmessenger.com/txt for more info. Just send “Y” or “Yes” to 67587
