DEVICE DAMAGE

Chromebook Not Working?  Bring the Chromebook to your local assigned school.  A loaner will be issued to your child while the service repair is completed.

Physical damage (intentional or accidental) to a device will result in a financial obligation. There is no fee for device malfunction, software issues, or hardware failure.
