Student Technology – Please have the important conversation with your student regarding their responsibility of borrowing and taking care of a SPS device during the school year. Replacing a damaged iPad ($250) or laptop ($350) could be at the expense of the family. All devices must be handled responsibly and with care. Thank you.
