The fee is $35 and covers all accidental damage (not negligent damage). It is optional but strongly encouraged. If you do not pay the fee then the family will be responsible for all damage, even accidental, and must sign the liability waiver. The fee also supports a subscription to the home-filtering app, Securly, that is installed on all of the Chromebooks.

To receive financial assistance for the fee, families must complete an application and submit to the District Business Office. It takes approximately 3 weeks to process. If you have questions, please call the School Business Administrator at 508-358-3750. Program Overview & Application
