How to file a claim:
Student and parent (or guardian) should sit down together to file the claim.

Log into schooldevicecoverage.com (parent/guardian will have the login information)
Click "file a claim."
Fill out the information requested.
Submit your claim
Helpful tips:
Your repair can't begin until you file a claim, and that claim is approved.
In the damage description, be as specific as possible about the incident that caused the damage. Remember that accidents are covered—if you dropped the Chromebook, it's okay to say so!
Not every repair requires a claim. Some repairs are covered under warranty. If you are unsure whether to file a claim, please check with Mrs. Richards.
