Regular maintenance and repair of the device will be conducted solely by Northbrook School District 27 personnel. Under no circumstances should students, parents, or third party entities attempt any repairs on the devices. The devices will be turned in over summer break to be updated and physical damage will be assessed. Devices will be collected during summer breaks for maintenance. Students will not be permitted to use the District devices during the break.

Student devices will be repaired by District staff. In the event of a repair, students will be issued a replacement device. The replacement device will be assigned to that student permanently. Parents are not charged a deductible for repairs.

Students displaying disregard for their devices may lose take-home privileges. Students will receive a warning prior to this action taken.

If a student leaves the device at home, a loaner device will be provided, as appropriate, for use during the school day only. Students will need to return the loaner device at the end of the day.

In the event that equipment is lost or stolen, the student must immediately notify the Technology Department personnel or School Administration. Parents may want to file a report with the Northbrook Police Department. The parent may be responsible for the cost of the lost netbook and any necessary peripherals such as power cord.
