Device Protection Plan

One to One logo

Coppell ISD is continuing to build, implement and sustain goals with digital learning through the implementation of various technologies.  We had the opportunity to work closely with our Long Range Plan for Technology Committee in order to revisit our past, current and future goals for how we are implementing technologies in learning in Coppell ISD.  As we look toward the future, we are continuing to focus on our overarching structures that support our educators with their lesson design and our learners in their day-to-day learning experiences.

The district will be providing a keyboard with each iPad for 6th-12th grade learners. These tools will enable more opportunities for our learners to use various applications within the iPad for writing and creative engagement, while also allowing for the typing and writing component to be more readily available on these devices. We also will be providing additional MacBook carts for departments and specific equipment for coding and Career and Technology Education (CTE) courses across our campuses.

Please know it is an expectation for all learners to bring their district issued device with them to school each day.  This is similar to your child having a resource, such as a textbook, which they are required to bring each day. It also will be the responsibility of the learner to ensure the device comes to school charged and ready to use.  While we will still have the flexibility for your child to bring their own personal device to school, the expectation is that they have their iPad with keyboard in order to ensure they are ready for the lesson design prepared by the educator each day.  

Along with the expectation of learners bringing their district issued device to school each day, there will be a device protection plan fee that each learner is encouraged to pay. This fee will help with covering issues that learners and families have had in the past with broken devices, lag time for fixes and lost cords or chargers, as well as helping with our overall sustainability of devices in the district. If you choose to not pay the device protection plan fee, you will be responsible for the full cost of repairs or replacement of the device.

Device Protection Plan

All elementary, middle school, CHS9, Coppell High School and New Tech High @ Coppell parents or guardians are encouraged to pay a non-refundable $35 annual fee for the Device Protection Plan, which will be used to repair accidental damage to CISD issued devices including iPads, keyboards or cases.  This protection plan applies to all students (PreK-12), because all of these students take their devices home for homework and school projects.

If you choose to not pay for the CISD Device Protection Plan, you will be responsible for the full cost of repairs or replacement of the device. Lost or missing items are not covered by the Device Protection Plan and you will be responsible for the full replacement of the device/accessory in the event the item is not found.

What is the Device Protection Plan Used For?

This protection plan will be used to repair accidental damage, stolen devices (with a police report), and product failure (not a result of damage). It will not cover negligence, willful damage or a lost device (see table below). As a parent or guardian, you may wish to purchase insurance in case your child's device needs to be replaced.

Withdrawing from CISD & Returning Your Device

The student iPad and accessories must be returned with only normal wear and tear and no missing accessories to avoid paying a replacement fee. If a student withdraws from CISD for any reason, he or she must return the device to a campus administrator along with accessories on or before the date of withdrawal.
