Chromebook Protection Plan

Students and parents are responsible for the Chromebook that is issued to them, just as they are for other district-loaned items such as textbooks, calculators, cameras, athletic equipment, or library books. The CPP provides families some financial protection if the Chromebook needs to be repaired or replaced.

The annual Chromebook Protection Plan (CPP) can provide some peace of mind if something should happen accidentally to the Chromebook. Enrollment in the CPP program is option. The CPP cost is $10 (non-refundable) per year, per student that covers the first and second accidental damage. Keep in mind that damage caused by willful destruction is not covered by the CPP.
