ChromeCare Student Information 2020-21
Stormonth Elementary
In order to support the Stormonth chromebook 1:1 deployment changes, the district will implement a student fee to include ChromeCare Warranty with Accidental Damage Protection offered from Technology Resource Advisors (TRA) to all Stormonth students in grades 1st- 4th for “take home” usage which corresponds to their grade level. This allows for the flexibility for students to use their assigned device at home to support digital learning, whether it be during the needs of the COVID-19 pandemic or for the future.
After the 2020-21 school year, all incoming 1st grade students and new students in grades 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, will pay the ChromeCare fee which corresponds to their grade level.
The 2020-21 fee schedule applies to incoming 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade students:
1st grade: $69 (4 years of coverage)
2nd grade: $54 (3 years of coverage)
3rd grade: $39 (2 years of coverage)
4th grade: $22 (1 year of coverage)
Students will keep their assigned device, case, and charger for their time at Stormonth (grades 1st- 4th), starting in 1st grade. They will be assigned a new chromebook and charger with another 4 year ChromeCare fee cycle once they enter 5th grade at Bayside Middle School. Students will continue to use their assigned chromebook case at Bayside Middle School.
Bayside Middle School
During the 2018-19 school year, the district implemented a student fee to include ChromeCare Warranty with Accidental Damage Protection offered from Technology Resource Advisors (TRA) to all Bayside students at a prorated cost for in-school useage. Now, as we move to our “take home” model, there will be a prorated increase for the existing coverage for 6th, 7th, and 8th grade chromebooks. Our 5th grade students will have the full 4 year “take home” fee on their new device.
All current 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students paid their fee in the 2018-19 or 2019-20 school year, so the additional fee is a small amount to extend coverage from “in-school” usage to “take-home”. This will be a one time fee for this year to transition into the new “take home” model coverage.
After the 2020-21 school year, all incoming 5th grade students and new students will pay the ChromeCare fee which corresponds to their grade level and for a device without existing coverage.
The 2020-21 fee schedule applies to incoming 5th grade students and a prorated amount for current 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students with existing coverage.
5th grade: $69 (4 years of coverage, new to device)
6th grade: $15 (3 years of coverage, upgrade from “in school” to “take home”)
7th grade: $10 (2 years of coverage, upgrade from “in school” to “take home”)
8th grade: $3 (1 year of coverage, upgrade from “in school” to “take home”)
New to the district students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade will be assessed the full Chromecare fee which corresponds to their grade level:
5th grade: $69 (4 years of coverage)
6th grade: $54 (3 years of coverage)
7th grade: $39 (2 years of coverage)
8th grade: $22 (1 year of coverage)
The ChromeCare Warranty provides coverage for accidental damage with weekly repairs and deliveries on site. Please note that this coverage does not include willful acts of abuse or misuse of the device, lost or stolen devices, unexplained damage, using the device in a manner other than that intended by the manufacturer, and damage due to war, nuclear incident, acts of terrorism, fraud, fire, or theft. If a student intentionally damages or loses their device, they are responsible for repair and/or replacement. The ChromeCare warranty does not cover damage or loss to the charger or chromebook case.
Finally, this Chromebook protection plan is another essential component to supporting our students’ learning and digital access through the 1:1 Chromebook program.
