Student Chromebook Insurance
South Windsor Public Schools offers insurance for school-issued Chromebooks at a cost of $26. Insurance coverage is for one year and expires August 23, 2024. We encourage 100% participation in the insurance program. Students are held personally and monetarily responsible for any loss or damage caused by intentional vandalism or negligence concerning assigned district electronic devices. The insurance will cover stolen devices with a police report and accidental damage. It will not cover lost devices or malicious acts. To join the insurance program, you may pay online OR make out a check for $26 to SWPS and write the student's ID number and grade in the memo line and hand it into the main office of your student's school. There is no need to purchase additional insurance when the devices are swapped.
