check payable to Enfield Public Schools . Coverage does not begin until the school has received payment . After every occurrence , the parent / guardian must complete a new Loss / Damage Waiver for their student ’ s replaced / repaired iPad or charger .
Special Circumstances / Restricted Access - Parent / Guardian – Initiated Accommodations If , at any point , circumstances call for a student to have limited or restricted access to district-provided resources , a written request by the student ’ s parent / guardian must be placed on file with the particular school from which the parent / guardian is requesting the special accommodation . If the request is initiated by the parent / guardian , then approved by a school administrator , and placed on file with the school ’ s technology department , a student may be granted , “ as needed only ” or “ by teacher request only ” access to a device , rather than have it issued permanently to the student . Administrators will take into account the parent concerns and potential educational impact . While the district encourages the use of technology , there may be unique circumstances when this is approved .
Administrator – Initiated Accommodations Noncompliance with the expectations of the Technology Student / Parent Handbook or violations of school policies can result in the loss of privilege with , or restricted access to , district-provided technology as a consequence for misuse or as a safety measure for a particular student . The use of Enfield Public Schools technology is a privilege rather than a right and can , therefore , be taken away from a student who has displayed a pattern of behavior that is considered by an administrator to be potentially unsafe , inappropriate , or disruptive for the user , other students , staff , the technology itself , or the learning environment .
