Student/Parent Technology Handbook
General Information:
Qualifications:
Students actively enrolled in, and who physically attend school in the Enfield Public Schools district,
qualify to use a district-owned electronic device. In order to receive and use the borrowed device, the
student must also comply at all times with the expectations of any applicable Enfield Public Schools
student policies and procedures; including, but not exclusive to behavior, attendance, and
telecommunications access.
Terms:
Qualifying students will be issued a district-owned electronic device at no cost to
student/parent/guardian (see Optional Damage Waiver*). One Apple iPad, original Apple charger
(power brick/cable), and case will be loaned to the student in good condition/working order. It is the
student's responsibility to care for the equipment and ensure that it is retained in a safe environment.
Financial obligation is not incurred by the student/parent/guardian unless loss or damage of the
borrowed device or accessories occurs. All use of the district-owned device must remain in
compliance with the Enfield Public Schools Student/Parent Technology Handbook and the Student
Acceptable Use Policy. Any failure to comply may terminate qualification and rights of possession
effective immediately, and EPS may repossess the property.
Title/Ownership
The legal title to the electronic device belongs to the Enfield Public Schools and shall at all times
remain as such. Your right of possession and use of the borrowed device is limited to, and
conditioned upon, your full and complete compliance with the expectations detailed in EPS
Student Acceptable Use Policy and the Enfield Public Schools Student/Parent Technology
Handbook. Because the borrowed device is the property of the school district, it is subject to
monitoring of use and search of contents at any time. There is no expectation of privacy in use or
data stored on a district-owned device.
Loss or Theft: (*Please see Loss/Damage Waiver for device coverage)
By taking possession of a borrowed device, the borrower agrees to assume full responsibility for the
safety, security, and care of the borrowed property. In a case of complete loss or theft occurring at
school, the borrower must report the incident to a school representative and to technology
department personnel from the district within one school day of the occurrence.
In the case of loss or theft occurring away from school, the borrower must report the incident to law
enforcement officials of the jurisdiction within 24 hours of the occurrence and then provide
documentation of the aforementioned law enforcement report to the school and technology
department within one day of the occurrence.
Failure to comply with time limits set above will result in coverage, included in any *loss/damage
waiver, to be rendered null and void resulting in student/parent/guardian assumption of full
financial responsibility for the device.
Damage: (*Please see Loss/Damage Waiver for device coverage)
By taking possession of a borrowed device, the borrower agrees to assume full responsibility for the
safety, security, care, and proper use of the borrowed property. In case of accident, fire, flood, or
careless handling of the property, the borrower agrees to assume full responsibility for the damaged
device as deemed necessary by the school district. In the case of damage to a borrowed device, the
user must report any damage (case, device, or chargers) to school personnel and technology
