Last Updated 3 years ago
Poplarville School District requires that the technology use/insurance fee be paid before the deployment of technology to your child. The technology use/insurance cost is $30.00 annually for each device. Each accident claim, after the first, covered by insurance, will be assessed an incremental deductible within the current school year. The first claim deductible will be $0 with the deductible increasing to $20.00 plus 25% of repair/replacement cost for the second claim made and $20.00 plus 50% of the repair/replacement cost for the third claim made within the current school year. Any additional claims after the 3rd will require full payment of the repair/replacement.
