Puyallup Laptop Protection Plan
Like textbooks, team uniforms and other school property, students are responsible for the appropriate care of the laptop. While a laptop is no different than a textbook, it does represent an increased cost to the district and liability to students and parents. The Puyallup Protection Plan is an optional way for students and parents to avoid a fine if an accident happens. This plan is completely voluntary.
The plan works this way:
- Prior to laptop distribution, Parents/Guardians make a non-refundable payment of $25.00 to their school. Families who qualify for Free/Reduced Lunch have the fee waived.
- This is an annual plan. The plan covers the laptop for the current school year only and must be purchased at the time a new laptop is issued to the student OR by a returning student by September 30th.
- Accidental damage to the laptop is repaired at no cost (*Repeated damage may be subject to the full cost of the repair).
- Stolen laptops are covered with a deductible and a police report submitted to the school.
- Loss resulting from fire, flood, or natural disaster will be covered at the same deductible schedule as a stolen laptop.
