A broken component due to accidents will be replaced, free of charge. After all this is what your non-refundable security deposit covers, so don't sweat it!

With that said, AP referrals will be made for the following (Note: The fees shown are exactly what we are charged by Lenovo to repair these Chromebooks):

$55 (Bezel) - Missing keyboard keys. These keys require upwards force (quite a bit actually) not downwards pressure in order to be removed. Any missing keys will be considered intentional and a fine issued. Please do not pull off keys on the keyboard as this requires the full laptop to be disassembled and the entire bezel (the main plastic component holding everything together) to be replaced in order to fix even just one key. I can't hand the laptop to another student in the future with missing keys.
I hand out a piece of paper with every newly issued laptop (all incoming 6th graders 100% receive this) that explains in bold red and highlighted yellow letters that any missing keys will incur the fine.
$129 - Broken LCD. Any damage not due to an accident to the screen will incur a $129 fine.
$55 (Bezel) - You may be written a fine for the bezel (the main plastic portion that holds your laptop together), this is all contingent on the overall condition of your laptop. If I can tell that you've intentionally bored scratches into the laptop or have abused it in any way, that will be considered intentional damage and you will be charged a fine accordingly for the component that will need to be replaced. If it's obvious the device has been dropped excessively and not just a couple of accidental times, that's still neglect and may incur a fine.
You should always keep your laptop in the bag that was provided to you at the time you received your laptop. This is the best way to keep the laptop protected from falls and damage.

STICKERS:
STICKERS:
School rules regarding stickers are that they are not allowed (see 6th-8th grade Module 2 here). These must ALL be removed prior to turning in your device at the end of year collections. Cleaning supplies will be supplied to your teachers to assist with this process prior to collection day. If you have a concern that you won't be able to get them off, please come see me in the library, I promise I'm a nice guy and I'll help you out! Simply removing the stickers is not enough, all of the adhesive that they leave behind must also be gone from the laptop.

Tip: You can fold up a piece of tape and use the sticky side to press down onto the adhesive repeatedly and this usually works well at pulling off the adhesive residue. If that doesn't work, try some rubbing alcohol pads (I have some in my office if you need them).
