Chromebook Grace Period Ends Monday — Protect Your Student’s Device

The two-week Chromebook grace period ends Monday.

Families have been given the first two weeks of school to identify and report any existing problems or damage with their student’s school-issued Chromebook. After Monday, students may be responsible for damage to their device that occurs during the school year.

Now is a great time to consider Chromebook insurance.

For a relatively small one-time cost, School Device Coverage can help protect families from a much larger unexpected expense. A Chromebook replacement can cost $218–$358, while coverage is available for $23 for the Chromebook alone or $28 for the Chromebook and charger.

Coverage includes accidental damage, cracked screens, liquid damage, loss and theft, with no deductible. Coverage runs through July 31, 2027.

Purchasing coverage is easy

Parents purchase coverage directly from School Device Coverage online. Please do not send money to your child’s school.

When completing the online form, you do not need to know your student’s Chromebook serial number. Simply enter TBD in the serial number field.

One important reminder: Insurance is designed to cover future incidents. Existing damage or loss that is already present when coverage is purchased is not covered.

A little protection can prevent a big expense

Chromebooks go everywhere with our students, and accidents happen — backpacks get dropped, screens get cracked, and drinks get spilled. Device coverage gives families a simple and affordable way to protect themselves from potentially significant repair or replacement costs during the school year.

If you plan to purchase coverage, we encourage you to do so before an accident happens.
