Repairing or Replacing Your Chromebook

Chromebook Undergoing Repair:

• Loaner Chromebooks may be issued to students when their Chromebook is sent out for repair from the IT department.

• If repair is needed due to malicious damage, the school may refuse to provide a loaner Chromebook.

• Students and parents will be charged for Chromebook damage that is a result of misuse or abusive handling. Parents will be billed for Dell parts and labor. The IT department has the right to decide when a Chromebook should be repaired in-house versus filing a claim.

Accidental Damage:

Knoxville CUSD #202 may bill for any repair necessary to a Chromebook to return it to its original working condition. Devices should not be disassembled or any attempt to repair by anyone other than school authorized vendors. Parents/Students will be charged the full replacement cost of a device that has been damaged due to intentional misuse or abuse.

Stickers:

Under no circumstances are students to modify, remove, or destroy service tag labels. Parents/Students will be charged for the full replacement cost of a device if the asset tag is modified, removed, destroyed, or if stickers are placed on the device by a student. ABSOLUTELY NO STICKERS ON CHROMEBOOKS. If the asset tag falls off due to normal wear and tear, IT will provide a new asset tag for the device.

If the property is stolen, a police report must be filed by the student or student’s parents/guardians involved in the loss of property.
