Chromebook/iPad Central

Wethersfield Public Schools (WPS) is committed to providing our students with devices for learning.  As with any book or materials that are used during the school year, students should ensure great care of their WPS assigned device. While we recognize that accidents happen, we are committed to helping our students grow into responsible and respectful digital citizens and expect that WPS devices will be treated with care. We appreciate your support. 


The District will cover the cost of repair for the first two instances of accidental damage. Additional damage beyond two repairs will result in a charge for the cost of the part, or for replacement of the full device if it is beyond repair with the exception of iPads. Any type of damage caused to an iPad will result in a bill for the full replacement price. Any lost or non-repairable device will also be charged at the full replacement price (currently $250). If the case and charger are also lost, they will be additionally charged at a rate of $25 for the case and 26$ for chargers. A bill will be issued from the WPS Business Office.
